Some hate tornadoes. They want to destroy them. Pictures of tornadoes show funnel-shaped or columnar clouds twisting across the earth. Forces within the powerful structures are similar to the whirlpools that appear over water drains as the water runs out. If we poke our finger into such whirlpools, we find that they are delicate.
