1. "Little chance we would live there anyway."

What the fuck is that shit right there? You got a mouse in your pocket?

3. I live in Austin. Yes, please stay away...

It's absolutely miserable here. Tornado's every week, followed by 150 degree daily heat and insect plagues.

It's horrible here, I tells ya! HORRIBLE!

4. Shinston, WV is on the list too, the nice thing about it is nobody could find it if they wanted to

Seriously, Shinston is not an easy place to get to and its not a bit likely that anyone would find themselves there by accident. Although its not really very far from easily visited towns and cities (Fairmont and Clarksburgh, WV as examples) you still have to go a long way to get there and nothing along the way hints that you are going the right way.

5. I think FEMA web site has a more scientific analysis

more data on strength of the twisters, number of twisters, etc. This analysis here ranks by deaths only and leaves a lot out.

6. Actually, since weather forecasting has become so precise

the older "death list" should not be used for statistical info

There is really no reason for anyone to die since dopler pretty much pin-points the addresses of home in jeopardy...and anyone in a danger zone can get special devices that alert you even while sleeping..

7. I grew up in the "Old" Tornado Alley in Kansas.

I never saw a tornado until I moved to North Dakota. Then I saw several. Two of which came a bit too close.
