  I enjoyed the interview that Wolf Blitzer did with a survivor and her baby outside her ruined home.  He said "and of course you want to thank god."  She said "No, I'm an atheist".  Didn't the all powerful god create the tornado and choose which homes to wreck?  I think that most people involved would appreciate the donation of food, money, clothing, habitat for humanity, rather than your prayers.  Put your money where your heart is.

  Holy Mary,
  
  help those in need,
  
  give strength to the weak,
  
  comfort the sorrowful,
  
  pray for God's people,
  
  assist the clergy,
  
  intercede for religious.
  
  
  
  May all who seek your help
  
  experience your unfailing protection.
  
  
  
  Amen

I've read a lot of cruel remarks on other sites regarding this, unfortunately. My number one passion has always been meteorology, and witnessing a tornado is definitely on my bucket list, very rare where we live, though. If I could afford it I would definitely book myself on one of the  tornado tours offered every spring.  If it's any consolation, I did read they may have been caught in the same traffic jam in which the other motorists died Friday evening. If true, it was more bad luck than bad judgement.

  [/quote]  During that time, did you ever witness a tornado yourself?

  I would like to urge you all, instead of offering just prayers, to give to the recovery fund.
