My ex sister-in-law lives in Joplin and her mother was visiting. I figured I'd be helping them, but amazingly they didn't get so much as a broken branch. Just lived in the right part of town I guess. THANKFULLY!
The Joplin devastation reminds me of smaller Greensburg, KS that was hit by an F-5 tornado in 2007. Rebuilding continues for some while others simply moved away as they had to temporarily relocate in order to have shelter anyway.
The city folk gathered and decided to build "green" as much as possible. This week a home is being constructed of blocks by a German company. The blocks interlock together so no glue nor nails are used. They will later be filled with gravel for insulation. Thermal flywheel maybe, but insulation? I'm a doubter.
I'm not trying to detract from Joplin, just trying to illustrate that the rebuilding effort will take years. I've always like Joplin and I wish the residents well.
