The WoodCraft store that got walked on by the tornado last

did they add a tornado shelter
maybe for members only


seriously though i wonder how insurance actuaries handle insurance
for places like this

i would guess that the odds are low that the same location would get
hit twice

One would think so. But, like the cliche that lightening never
strikes twice in the same place - the reality is that often there
isn't anything left after the first strike.
Same goes for tornadoes. I was told that the Air Force Base in
Salina Kansas had a tornado come through and tear the front off the
commissary. A year later, another tornado tore the front off the
repairs.
