Absolute dolts. There is NO WAY I'd be out there.

    Those guys are crazy staying on that rig.
Really? I'd rather be on the rig than on a boat if a tornado hit me.

Woah, 64 knots is the limit for the Beaufort scale ...


In the description of the scale a man said :

'Children under 12 yo are flying ..... '

While we're on the topic of tornados... Here is a pic of the tornado that hit La Plata, MD earlier this year. This picture is taken from Calvert Cliffs nuclear plant - thats how close the tornado got to the plant. This tornado basically wiped out the town of La Plata as a strong F4 tornado. I believe F4 and F5 tornados (the strongest) account for less than 1 percent of all tornados in the US in any given year.

Yeah, you're right, but I'd much rather be 50 miles inland.
