    That means that global warming is caused by automobile accidents and if we reduce the number of automobile accidents we will reduce global warming. 😉

    That’s not a good comparison, you need to work out number of hours spent in the car against number of hours spent in the tornado. If Americans spent as many hours in tornado winds my guess is the car would be a lot safer 😉

    Daft people bring up the same argument for guns v cars as well.

    In many parts of the country, like where I live, the chance of being killed by a tornado is almost zero. It seems that about the most dangerous thing most Americans can do is talking on the phone while driving within five miles of home during a thunderstorm in ‘Tornado Alley’. Yet people do it all the time, then get upset about someone owning a Hummer. Give me a break.

    I wonder how many of those 15,000 died in small, fuel-efficient, planet-saving cars?
