Subject: Jim Turner retrieves Paul from Union University after tornado


Ed,

I just talked to Jim Turner.  They are on the road driving home right now.

Paul's car has windows broken out, a number of dents, is soaked, but
drivability is unknown.  Paul stayed in the hospital overnight to get
his blood chemistry numbers in order (which tend to get out-of-whack
with any kind of crushing injury).  He is sore, but has good mobility.
 His room/building is unsafe to enter, so it's unknown whether he'll
be able to recover anything or not.

Two of his other buddies are still in hospital for for the same
reasons.  One should be out soon, but the other is expected to stay in
for a couple more weeks.  Both have had blood transfusions.

Paul's car was on TV (CNN?) last night.

Today FEMA filmed Jim & family as they recovered a few items from his
car (soccer ball, used books he was going to sell, and not much else).

One Union University student, when asked by a reporter what he would
tell prospective incoming students, replied, "Come on.  We're
remodelling!"
