NASA Head Issues Agency-Wide Preparedness Alert: "I Became Aware of Some Things..."
Youtube ^ | 6/13/2011

________________________ ________________

NASA head Charles Bolden issued a weekend statement through the NASA Headquarters of Emergency Operations advising employees and their families to prepare for unforeseen emergency and/or disasters.

Some key excerpts from the video statement follow:

They've given me a few minutes just to talk to all of you in our NASA family about emergency preparedness. NASA recently participated in a FEMA exercise called Eagle Horizon that was a part of a continuity of operations of government exercise that we do annually, and I became aware of some things that concerned me about family preparedness...

...

So, what I'm asking all of you in the NASA family, whether you're out on the West coast, here on the east coast, along the Gulf Coast, up on the Great Lakes, think about the natural disasters that could occur in your area. Think about attacks that could come like 9-11, from outside forces, and talk to your family about your work and what they need to do to prepare for the unforeseen.

Develop a family preparedness plan in your house.

Many believe that sun spots from solar flares will take out the power grid..They have discovered Holes in the earth magnetic field..This is suppose to happen in 2012.

Who knows this stuff is really out there.

That's kind of vague and nothing on any major news networks?

Good thing my car is gassed up and ready to go - should have gotten something without low profile highway tires though.

Why? The Northeast Blackout of 2003 was not followed by any riots or chaos.

"The Northeast Blackout of 2003 was a widespread power outage that occurred throughout parts of the Northeastern and Midwestern United States and Ontario, Canada on Thursday, August 14, 2003, at approximately 4:11 p.m. EDT (UTC−04). At the time, it was the second most widespread blackout in history, after the 1999 Southern Brazil blackout. The blackout affected an estimated 10 million people in Ontario and 45 million people in eight U.S. states."

It was longer than 24 hours, and for a place such as New York, that's an eternity.

I figured it out. Remember when Obama told Bolden that his primary focus wasto each out to muslims to make them fee good about themselves?

Obama must have tod Bolden to prepare for the return of the 7th Flying Imam.

That was for real? I saw the movie.

My guess is crime in New York was a lot worse back then, before Giuliani cleaned it up maybe?

That might be a bad guess

. Especially with these "hard times", mob mentality will likely flourish if given the opportunity.

Interesting that in the 70's, the US economy was almost as bad as it is today. Carter ~ Obama.
