If this article (v interesting, by the way) was renamed 8-9 August 1993 tornado outbreak it would get rid of all those horrible commas that break up the title and make it clumsy to read in a sentence. Just a thought. 86.133.53.54 (talk) 12:09, 23 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

That would be grammatically incorrect, which is important in writing an encyclopedia. -Marcusmax(speak) 01:16, 25 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
