Tiny Tsunami Reveals Big Gaps in Readiness

[dArKeR]

The tiny wave generated by a major undersea earthquake off the far Northern California coast last month revealed large gaps in how ready communities hugging the Pacific shoreline are for a true tsunami threat.

Although the alert was canceled about an hour after blaring sirens warned some towns of a could-be killer wave that never arrived, the effects of the magnitude-7.2 quake are still rattling emergency planners.

Some residents received no warning on the evening of June 14 — in other cases, word was not spread wide enough fast enough. And the event exposed how some heavily populated areas lack an evacuation plan even if they did receive quick warning.

Democratic leaders are nothing but a bunch of pussys if they don't slap this story in the face of American Media Whores! Whoreland Security is chasing and investigating and arresting prostitutes (a choice for people who never marry), kids downloading MP3s and low quality movies on the internet (learning about technology advances instead of doing drugs in the playground), and spending untold money and resources illegally spying on grandma peacegroups, Greenpeace members trying to clean up the Earth and ACLU members.

In my opinion ALL the Media should be put in jail, not just Miller, for failure to perform their jobs.
