That is exactly what I said. The difference is that we heard about Homestead for years in the media, because it was Florida. Parkersburg won't be heard outside of Iowa after this weekend.
When I was in college one of my favorite professors lived in Jordan Iowa, which was destroyed by the last F5 to land in Iowa, 32 years ago. Jordan was not much of a town, but the damage was unbelievable. I saw that firsthand. Fortunately, there were no lives lost in that one, and it was hard to believe everyone lived through it. The stories that are coming out of Parkersburg are really wild. At 01:20 PM 5/29/2008, you wrote: >Wow. I have not seen scenes like that since Homestead/Florida City after >hurricane Andrew.
