can easily vote prior to listening on this one
BUT
I voted no on the poll; don't live there, not cuzza tornadoes, there's so many other reasons

lived in Colorado Springs, CO '94-'97. Pretty much every afternoon (except winter), rolling in over the front range, we had rocking electrical storms. After many storms we'd see these (breast clouds, seriously) headed off to Kansas . . not good

I'm originally from tornado alley (Tulsa, OK) and I don't think it's dumb to live there. A good chunk of my family still lives in Oklahoma and Kansas, and none of us lost a home to a tornado. My grandparents' old home had some damage back in the 70's and that's it. I now live in the southeast and was present for the fun that was Hurricane Hugo and I've dealt with other hurriances. There's a risk, sure, but that's what insurance is for.

Where should everyone in the middle of the country move? Can't do West coast, earthquakes. That's stupid, right? Southeast part of the country has hurricanes, so that's stupid. I guess we're all moving to New York. Make some room. Then again, there is that pesky "major terror target" thing...hmmm...

And bed bugs...I'll take my chances with the tornadoes.

I hear absolutely nothing about Montana. So try there. I think it's just a big parking lot where nothing happens.

We get temperatures 30-60 below zero for sometimes 2 week stretches in the winter. And we're on a fault line -- the only earthquake I've ever experienced was a 5.8 right here in Montana. And we're in a drought so often that half the state can burn down at any moment in the summer. Every place has its thing(s).

I'm surprised they're even called fault lines and not normal lines. It's so normal.

and there's new yorkers, too. i'd rather take a tornado than a daily dose of new yorkers.
