I was talking to a friend in Columbus, Ohio, and asked whether he'd been affected by the tornadoes in Kansas, because I thought the middle of America was all one place.
To drive from Columbus, Ohio to Greensburg, Kansas is 1541 kilometres; almost exactly the same distance as to drive from Cambridge to Vienna. People rarely ask me whether my house is dry when they've heard that the Danube's flooded in Austria.
