Happened about 24 hours ago.  Not sure why just being reported now.  Ship was too tall it seems.

It happened tonight, the article has the wrong day.

With the nature of tornadoes, I don't think we can save many more lives.  If you warn someone of it coming, and it never materializes, people become numb to the warnings.  And in hurricanes, many people have to be pulled out of their homes to get them out.  The whole idea of blanket cutbacks is to see what is really needed and to find ways to become more efficient.  Everyone will rationalize that their department, their specific area is the most important.  The only way to find out what is most essential is to make cuts across the board and restore the areas that become obvious at a later date (hopefully sooner than later).  Also, many of the proposed cuts do not occur, or are negotiated down.  The government is too big to be able to surgically remove what is true waste.  Pharmaceutical companies are a good example.  There used to be people going to work at was once called "country club" environments, read a newspaper, and fall asleep.  

the night time tornado problem is a particularly difficult one to tackle, especially in rural areas.
