"Yes, not everyone thanks a deity for their survival and nobody should thank their god for a vicious tornado that wiped out so much of what people owned and even took lives, especially the lives of innocent children.

Has anyone else noticed that...
All the Nordic countrys have flags that, when turned the right way - look like inverted crosses. Maybe it was a last "F-YOU!" to the crusaders from way back? Just thought it was kind of funny and mildly interesting. Does anyone know WHY they picked those designs exactly?

It's slightly pre-dates those crusades I'm afraid. Wikipedia Nordic cross.
It was first used on the Danish flag and seems to have just got quite popular.
