    Just signing off of the computer and saw the news about Dallas. Holy smokes, I did not know they got tornados.

    Everyone okay down there?

    So many people who have lost so much............how very sad. Would this type of damage be covered by insurance?

    I'm guessing all those tracker trailers were empty. They were getting tossed around like nothing!

    that takes some of the sting out of the event although it never makes it go away. There's always "will it happen again and when" and replacing things that are unique - that can't be replaced. I feel very badly for them and all those who endure these types of catastrophes. Oh well.........thanks for the info KK.

    I was at DFW airport when all this went down, and it was a crazy day. Everything cancelled, and the place was glued to local news via CNN. Amazing that there was no loss of life from such destruction. On a lighter note, my once hail damaged wagon escaped unscathed, but my daily driver HHR got pummeled while parked out at the airport. D'oh! David :)

    Glad to hear you are okay, David. With so much widespread damage, having some hail hit your driver is probably one of the better outcomes.

    Take care,
