I'm too tired to stay up any longer but I'm praying the rest of our OKC area FReepers are okay.
Sometimes it doesn't matter if you're in a mobile home or a brick home. Cyclones this big are going to get you. :-(
I wonder how GM's problems are going to affect the local economy. I pray they don't just shut down.

I wondered that about GM. I was just glad that Tinker AFB escaped once again.

A friend's husband works at GM and was there when it hit. (Only one person there injured seriously enough to be transported by ambulance.) He said, besides the union hall, the part hardest hit at GM was the paint department. City and union officials are saying, of course, that it will be rebuilt, but time will tell. It had just gone back into production last year after re-tooling for the new Envoy, and hopefully SUV sales will stay strong enough to justify rebuilding here.
