RW> No, Illinois. San Diego had them too, but a tornado is very rare. What
RW> was called a 'Whirling Dervish' in San Diego was a dust bowl phenomina
RW> kind of thing. No water, but plenty of wind and dust.
 
My mother used to show us Whiling Dervishes.  These were the tiny swirls of
dust that were kicked up from time to time.  I haven't seen one in quite
awhile.  
RW> I got into it with my DIL the other day over her propensity to inundate
RW> the family Facebook site with Christianity bullshit. When I was done, I
RW> dropped her from my 'family' contacts. She tried to rejoin by requesting
RW> that she be allowed back in by using a 'Facebook User' fake name...like
RW> I'd fall for that!
 
No respect for her elders, huh?  I'd have done the same thing even though I
am a religious person.
