    That’s pretty obviously european… we don’t have tornadoes.

    Also… Have you ever seen the Space Needle? How do you think that stays up?

      The Pacific Northwest doesn’t really get tornadoes. It’s a good thing too. Some dude in KY tried to cultivate redwoods because he thought he could get rich selling legally harvested redwood timber. Was going pretty well for about a decade to decade and a half, until the first high wind storm came through. Wasn’t even a full blown tornado. He lost about 40 acres of adolescent redwoods because they don’t grow deep roots, they grow wide. That’s basically why you don’t see them except in a tiny area of Northern California.
