I am posting this to ask what you think about an idea I had today.
Today in the town where I live in RL, there was a major storm sys-
tem, with tornadoes in nearby counties.  What I would like to do is
bring such a system through Generica.  Lots of thunder, lots of hail,
lots of rain, maybe some property damage, etc.
 
What I would like to do is write a description of this storm blowing
up, then blowing into town.  Then each person who was writing on a
thread that took place in Generica would take note of this weather
condition and have his/her characters take shelter, go to try to
rescue someone, etc.  I would leave property damage to the individual
owners of the property.
 
What do you all think?  I would think it would be interesting to see
how everyone reacts in an emergency, and see the effects of such an
emergency on the town.  Come to think of it, the intense electrical
activity associated with such a storm could provide the perfect sit-
uation for magical or alchemical experiments, if any wizard wanted
to attempt it.
 
Unless I get some strenuous objections within the next few days, I
will start the ball rolling with a thread entitled [Storm].  What
do you think?  Heck, it could be FUN...
