According to Science News, if you pick a random point in the
part of the USA that is most prone to tornadoes, you can expect
that point to be hit by a serious tornado about once every 4,000
years. That's not enough to worry about.

Except that tornados aren't distributed randomly across the US;
there are areas that get a lot of them and there are areas that
get few of them.

And both the OP and the article addressed this. It is 1 in 4,000
years in the area MOST PRONE to tornados.

Say... you're right.

Looked right at it and read what I expected to see, not what he
actually wrote.

Dang...
