Wood is an amazing building material. A properly designed wooden
structure will stand up to a hurricane just as well as a properly
designed concrete structure.

Sorry, but I won't buy that for one second. Concrete doesn't blow out when
a window gives way and air pressure builds up inside the house, not at
hurricane speed winds. Safe rooms built inside wooden homes in tornado
alley are not build out of wood -- they are built out of reinforced
concrete.

Did you know that they even make airplanes out of wood?

Sure, and very few people find them suitable for permanent habitation.
