We're getting it all at about 10:45. I'm in the basement with pillows, blankets, my family, and my dog.

Bedford, IN, got pretty much destroyed...

I have my advanced weather station set up. Four computers, two TV's, and a Blackberry.

Your basement looks a hell of a lot more comfortable than mine!

Mine is just a man cave. Couch, coffee table, laptop, TV(cheapo Insignia), HD cable box and a concrete floor! A redo is on the long list. The kids playroom is at the top of the short list. The paneling looks like hell, so it's coming down this summer and I'm going to make my first attempt at hanging drywall.

Old photo but the car appears to have a large dealer or factory logo on the side.

Are there any dealer installed factory heaters that they mention.

I haven't heard of those since the Corvairs of the 1960's that, despite the superb turbos, they had horrible gas heaters. Mostly it was a smell issue with the supplemental heater.

SU? If Steve Wade's mother was run over by a Saab he would blame his mother. I pay no attention to what he published in 2010.

Factory sabotage has been known to happen. UAW workers often took it out on the buyers. Ah, that is pretty far fetched for a small company like Saab though.

The stories I've heard from the old GM F body plant in Norwood, OH. Workers drinking on the job would hide beer bottles in the door panels. Others would put a bottle into a place that was inaccessible after the car was fully assembled. Thus creating a permanent rattle that could never be found unless the car was taken apart.

I remember some of the stories that Lee Iaacoca told about Chrysler when he took it over. Ever wonder why every Volare you see has one or both of it's grills missing? Factory sabotage.

In this case wouldn't it be Saabotage?

All the best!. Keep safe!.

Ugh I hate trying to plod through SC to find the information I want

I hear that.

That was last night. I guess he survived. The same system that hit him, hit me about 45 minutes later. There were two confirmed tornados in our area yesterday and last night.

I'm still here. Nothing really happened...No damage at my house, although someone on the next street over had a tree barely miss their garage. I never even lost power.

Hanging drywall is relatively easy... plastering/puttying well is the hard thing.
