Went to see Wicked at the weekend. It tells you who to blame.==========================================Cursors are useful if you don't know sql.SSIS can be used in a similar way.Beer is not cold and it isn't fizzy. |

I heard audio tapes of people taking cover as a tornado passed over. It only lasted a few moments but it must have seemed an eternity for the people going thru it. I work for an insurance company and we are getting many claims for total destruction already.JimEveryday I learn something that somebody else already knew |

Was it graz? Our office reported a tornado on the ground in Overland Park Kansas, a suburb of Kansas City. I took video of dropping funnel that passed directly over my house in Topeka over the weekend. I was sure it was going to drop on us. It touched down about 6 miles from my house but I don't believe it caused any damage. Hail was the bigger threat. I took pics of some hail almost as big as my fist.Hey, it compiles. |

No, not graz, but someone else in the area. They came through OK with no damage.CODO ERGO SUM |

Same here Lumbago hardly anything ever happens round my way, just rains all the time :( lol. It is surprising to see how much damage natural disasters can cause. Those earthquakes in Japan must have absolutely wrecked peoples lives, such a shame :(Shahbaz AhdiApps DeveloperODEON/UCI Cinema |
