I wonder how my family was suppose to know to get the hell out of the way of a tornado when we were kids? We lived in the country about 20 miles from the nearest town.

We sure as heck didn't get on CNNABCCBSNBC and tell people they were worthless crap for not "warning" us. It was pretty darn obvious just from looking at the sky.

Yes, well, now people don't have to think for themselves. Every time the thermometer reads above 85 in Philly the local news station declare heat emergencies. Every time a snow flurry is forecast in the winter, they create a run on French toast in the supermarkets (I'm assuming that's why everyone buys eggs, bread and milk before a snowstorm up here).
