I sure hope you take the time to correct them. For people to assume we don't have two-story houses in Oklahoma because of the tornado "risk" quite frankly maes them look uneducated. Do they feel the same way about Dallas? They, too, are in heavy tornado alley.
Besides, tornadoes are much less of a risk in Oklahoma. Lightning is a bigger risk, but not as much as in Florida.
Continue the Renaissance!!!
