Emergency Preparedness
Your story about the recent quake and the warning system reminded me of the other day when a pleasure aircraft strayed into restricted airspace around the capitol and effectively shut down the U.S. government. Apparantly the warning system was to send out several people and yell "RUN GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE" I know it is serious but as you could see the panic stricken people hauling ass in no general direction you couldn't help but wonder why that new office of Homeland security couldn't do just a little better to warn and evacuate in an emergency. I'm sure Bin Laden was laughing in his bunker while watching Dish Network.

I still laugh about A.J.'s story of his safety training when he was doing electrical work at a refinery. After a lot of exhaustive explanation of processes and things to watch out for, his summary of the whole thing was "Stay ahead of the fire ball." Good advice.
