When I attended storm spotter training sessions in Ohio, 35 or so years 
ago, the famed "Xenia Tornado" was the standard by which all other Ohio 
tornadoes were measured.  Some of the Xenia debris in the southwest part 
of the state was found in the northeast part. But then, in 1986 I think, 
I worked communications in the aftermath of the "Niles Tornado" and saw 
streets that had only the basements of homes remaining.  Now I live in 
Texas where it is more peaceful (tongue in cheek).

One of them knew the Greene County Fairgrounds. Suddenly he pointed to the area where the entrance gate was and said there used to be a line of tall trees there, but several years ago a set of tornados took them down. Now how eerie and - hopefully - not prophetic.
