Kansas City Star to publish book on Joplin Tornado

The Kansas City star, which probably put forth the best newspaper reporting on the May 22 Joplin Tornado, is publishing a book featuring its photos and coverage of the disaster.

I wish the Star would have selected a different name for its book, which is called Joplin 5:41, but I am still looking forward to reading it. The accompanying video features Star reporters talking about the tornado and the book.

Why is everyone still using 5:41 when the tornado actually touched down 7 minutes earlier than that? Randy, I'm sure your book was already in the works and changes couldn't be made, but you would think the KC Star and the city of Joplin would catch on.
