Its not like a tornato comes down every time the horns start blowing. its actualy not that common of an occurance. And when they do hit. they don't wipe half a state off the map (unless a big one was to hit Rhoad Island). I'm stuck hear in Florida and would welcome the tronatos over these last couple years here. I guess what I'm trying to say is even though they are very dangerus, when put into perspective, its not a bad as its made out to be.

I know what you mean, problem is the media (its all too real as if it happens all the time) we all know it doesn't though, neworleans gets wiped out with mega flood (first time ever) but the media make it look like its normal and every day life

No more or less called for than:

I don't understand why people live there at all "a bit like living on mount ETNA and waiting for the inevitable" but good luck
which was MY point... The SAME argument could be made for any number of places, for any number of reasons.
Why don't all the people that live near a coastline simply move further inland that risk teh ocassional Hurricane/Tsunami/what-have-you.
Why live where another country takes it upon itself to oppress your entire people?
Why live anywhere NEAR a major fault line?
Why live at teh foot of a hill that may someday come sliding down upon you?
Why live up on that same hill when, sooner or later, heavy rains will make your home more mobile that you intended?
Why live in a Tornado zone?
Why live where Terrorists may someday strike?
Why live anywhere a nuclear powerplant?
Why live in teh woods where wildlife can EAT you?
Why live in teh City where Smog and Crime are out to ruin your quality of life?
Why live where HazMat trucks can potentially crash and spill lethal amounts of Chlorine gas into your neighborhood?

Why LIVE?!?!?

*I* don't understand your original comment. Explain it to me, PLEASE!

we're ALL entitled to teh ocassional, mate. But, honestly, I don't think that I crossed any line that you hadn't, already.

S'all gud. One big HAPPY, and wot not.
