Link: CNN.com – Severe weather radios provided to public schools – Sep 25, 2006.
Read this and then figure out where mobile should figure…
The National Weather Service, part of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, operates more than 950 short-range radio stations. It has encouraged schools, business and homeowners to buy warning radios that are activated with a broadcast signal that automatically turns a radio on and announces a potential hazard.
The Homeland Security Department now has decided to provide $5 million to make sure these radios are in every public school, NOAA Administrator Conrad Lautenbacher said.
Originally conceived as a means to deliver weather warnings, the system now covers all hazards — for example, terrorism, abducted children and derailed trains carrying toxic materials.
I’d like to see the mobile medium included somewhere!
