Forgot to mention the thermal from hell that hit the tent area on
Monday. I wiped out Poland, the Netherlands, and a few other countries. Tents were totaled. Tent polls were falling from the sky. One model was lifted about 100 ft and was totalled.

Local paper had a pretty good picture. Hopefully a scanned copy will make the official WC web site. They have a downloadable MPEG of some of the TV coverage too.
