"Pit Bull Terriers - should they be banned. That's the question being asked around New Zealand and Australia. In an attack recently a man had very serious facial injuries. His nose was bitten off and his right ear was ripped away. His plastic surgeon said it was the worst case he had ever treated. I think using a Pitt Bull terrier as a guard dog would be going overboard. My opinion is that Pitt Bull terriers should be banned. The United Kingdom is going to ban Pitt Bull terriers and hopefully New Zealand will."

"Avalanches happen on mountains. They are caused by lot of heavy snow building on top of each other. Sound - for example shouting, can cause this great snow block to tumble down and bury anyone in its path. If you are trapped there is usually enough air to breathe for several days but you'll freeze to death if you're not found quickly because your blood will gradually drop down until your heart stops beating....Last year in Canada some people (including a New Zealander) were trapped in an avalanche but luckily they were rescued."

And here's something from another familar face -
"I think of a tornado as a huge leg reaching out of the sky which goes around sucking things up like a vacuum cleaner kicking everything it sees."
