Joplin Missouri Devastated By Tornado

Couple of good (well......BAD) videos of the Joplin tornado:

UPDATED: Video of the Joplin Twister « CBS St. Louis

The 2nd one, where the 20 folks took cover in a convenience store cooler, really shows human reaction to peril. Some pray, some scream, some comfort.....The part where the dude speaks up and tells everyone there that he loves them is particularly poignant, I think.

This tornado season is taking the cake....I don't care what anyone says.

It is so difficult to comprehend how one town can be 75/80% destroyed....there is so little anyone can do when something like that happens....unbelievable...and sad.
