Hurricane vs tornado

It will be real interesting to see if the Kansas people whine and blame George Bush for the tornadoes that devestated entire towns over the weekend. From what I saw on the news, they just went to work starting the clean up on their own like responsible peopplr will.

I live in Naperville, Il. Lived in the area most of my life. I've seen some devastating tornadoes as you probably have in WI (i.e. Barneveld) but one of the worst was this one:

I have to say, that 17 years later, you'd never know there had been a tornado there. Not only has Plainfield come back, that town is bigger and better than ever.

I don't think I've ever seen anything like what's happened to those poor folks in Greensburg, KS. That was a level 5 tornado with winds exceeding 200 mph.

My prayers go out to them. They'll go about their work of rebuilding, as they have in most places where natural disaster has occured.
