Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

I always thought it was the bathtub that was safest, but admitidly hard to fit everyone in. If it's any consolation- I think your chances of actually bein injured in tornado are pretty slim, even in Indiana.

It's like terrorism- scares billions, harms thousands.

You're probably right. If you've ever watched the Weather Channel over her much, they are way into fear-mongering. If you watch long enough you can feel a little paranoid.

Still, I think it's funny my son decided it would be fun to 'camp' under the stairs tonight. He's in there now w/ his little outer space comforter sleeping. Cute.

best place is inna ditch outside the home......better yet, crawl into the culvert in the driveway.....
