From last thread:

Give me a stack of flyers with "what to report" and I'll volunteer my time to educate those in my community. I'll post flyers at the library, at the grocery store, at the gas station, at the train station and the mall. (You get my drift).

The PEOPLE are NOT aware, they have NOT been educated and there are not enough eyes on this. We can sit and HOPE there won't be another attack and blame Ridge or Bush if IT happens, or WE can do something.

MTA To Update Posters Urging Commuter Vigilance

POSTED: 7:43 am EDT June 24, 2004

NEW YORK -- The Metropolitan Transportation's campaign urging commuters to report suspicious activity on trains and buses is being updated to include photographs of unattended bags.

The agency, which has posted warnings that read "If You See Something, Say Something" for the past 18 months, plans to unveil new signs that feature images and urge riders to "Be suspicious of anything unattended."

Katherine Lapp, the MTA's executive director, said the new signs will soon be posted in subways, buses and commuter train cars. She said the agency would be prepared to handle false alarms.

The revised campaign stems in part from the Madrid bombings in March, in which backpacks were used to hold bombs that exploded on four commuter trains, killing 191 people.
