I disappear for a week (stupid cross-country trip, lol)... And I come back to threads talking about ACF closing/merging with IGN?

So, what the F is up with that?

How the hell could I have caused the migration over to IGN?

All I did was take a week-long trip from New York back to Washington State... And yes, I took my damn sweet time... Although, I did have several interesting experiences...

Here's one... In Indiana and Missouri enroute to Kansas City, I was driving on I-70 and I was texting a friend that I was meeting in Kansas City at the time saying "Hm, I see a huge storm front, about 40 miles wide..." The minute I entered the storm, all of sudden, I had a downpour similar to being in a waterfall not being able to see like 15 feet in front of me. All the other cars had pulled over under bridges with their hazard lights flashing. And what do I do? I keep going at 70 mph zooming my way towards Kansas City... Later that night after checking into hotel, I watched the news and went "Uh-oh..." Cuz apparently there was tornadoes close to where I had been... I was like "Hmm, I'm definitely not telling my mom this... She'll blow a gasket..."

Depending on what night that was... you drove through the storm that killed 13 people here.

It also completely eliminated at least two small cities and caused a ton of damage across the state.

I left New York Thursday afternoon... Managed to get just southwest of Columbus, Ohio before stopping for the night. I stayed overnight in a rest area sleeping in my car. I left the rest area a little after 6am Friday morning and didn't get to Kansas City til around 5pm Friday afternoon. Based on the news and my observations, I believe I passed through the storms because as I was driving, I saw at least 3 storm fronts, and for two of those, cars were pulled over under bridges. I only thought they pulled over to wait out the rain and since I'm used to driving in a heavy downpour, I kept going. It never occurred to me that it was alot more than just rain.

So I might have had close calls with tornadoes, and I will definitely pay more attention next time I do a road trip.
