I think that language has a lot to do with interfering in our relationship to direct experience. A simple thing like metaphor will allows you to go to a place and say 'this is like that'. Well, this isn't like that. This is like this.

This system is far from over and may produce even larger tornados over the next while.

Re: Oklahoma City is now...
Was this same area hit by the last mega tornado? Tragic news.
I wonder if now there will be plans to build more adequate protection from such powerful winds.

Re: Oklahoma City is now...
just watched a clip on BBC news- pisses me off when they anthropomorphise such acts of nature. It's fucking awful, the damage these winds do but a tornado is not and could never be "malevolent". Jaysus.
