Comment by Ronald Clarence Thompson on July 22, 2010 at 7:47pm: My family survived the "Shinnston Tornado" the tornado destroyed the tiny town of Shinnston, West Virginia in abt 1943 killing hundreds of people. My father, as a teenager was drafted by the state to recovery the bodies of the victims. I have a book detailing the events and listing all the victims,

I'm glad a Katrina victim was able to babysit my apartment when I had a chance to go overseas. Best wishes...
