[ExI] oh no, not this again...

[William Flynn Wallace]

I worked in the mobile home business.  They will sell you tie downs but
laugh at you behind your back.  They know that if a tornado hits your home
it will be blown away or imploded.

They make money from the tiedowns but they don't work well - maybe if the
winds are 80 or so they will help - such as in a hurricane.   bill w
