To Members in Missouri

[Sangye]

After seeing the news of the devastating tornado in Joplin I wanted to check on our members from Missouri and make sure everyone is okay. They said the main hospital was completely destroyed. I hope everyone is safe. My heart is with your state.

Oh my goodness! I did not even hear about this. I hope everyone is alright.

I got nothing but gorillas, elephants, fish, cats, etc.

What? You didn't get a link to the story on the tornado?

[pberggren1]

Whoops! Still half asleep. Missed the link in the other post. That is intense destruction. A town in Canada of about 7,000 people was ripped apart by fire last week. About 500 homes and 100 businesses including town hall, fire hall, police station, etc. were destroyed. Residents are still not allowed back to the town.

Here's a story on the hospital that was destroyed.

That is just insane how a tornado can do so much damage.

They said the tornado was a mile wide. Can you imagine?

[pberggren1]

A mile?!!! Most towns are not even that big.
