For 280 million people?

Put shelters in the building codes and wait. That's how the Swiss did it. Of course, if we wanted to do it in a hurry, it would get expensive.

I have a sign on my tornado shelter that is reversable and says bomb shelter on the other side. When threat is high during thunderstorms I have to stop and consider the consequences.......:o)

Stay Safe !

'93 WTC bombing was on Feb. 26th. Wasn't that the anniversary of the end of the Gulf War or something?

There must be heavy international traffic today as everyone heads home from the winter games in SLC. I would imaging that lots of packed flights from SLC have been heading to Dulles and JFK all day. It would only make sense to increase the security level today.

I don't think the Olympic attendees would make any blip on the normal ebb and flow of people entering and leaving the country. And besides, most would exit from the west coast. Russia, China, Japan and even Scandanavia are better served from the west coast in terms of distance form SLC

For 280 million people?

Well we know shelters have been built for the only people our beloved Congresspersons give a rats a$$ about. Guess who?
