I did a search for this list but did not find it under the words "120 cities"

FYI and speculation!

Studies show that 100% of all people now living will someday be dead.

Time to repost that most dangerous of terrorist weapons -- Dihydrogen Monoxide!

Dihydrogen monoxide is colorless, odorless, tasteless, and kills uncounted thousands of people every year. Most of these deaths are caused by accidental inhalation of DHMO, but the dangers of dihydrogen monoxide do not end there. Prolonged exposure to its solid form causes severe tissue damage. Symptoms of DHMO ingestion can include excessive sweating and urination, and possibly a bloated feeling, nausea, vomiting and body electrolyte imbalance. For those who have become dependent, DHMO withdrawal means certain death.

Dihydrogen monoxide:

• is also known as hydroxl acid, and is the major component of acid rain.
• contributes to the "greenhouse effect."
• may cause severe burns.
• contributes to the erosion of our natural landscape.
• accelerates corrosion and rusting of many metals.
• may cause electrical failures and decreased effectiveness of automobile brakes.
• has been found in excised tumors of terminal cancer patients.

Contamination Is Reaching Epidemic Proportion - Quantities of dihydrogen monoxide have been found in almost every stream, lake, and reservoir in America today. But the pollution is global, and the contaminant has even been found in Antarctic ice. DHMO has caused millions of dollars of property damage.

Despite the danger, dihydrogen monoxide is often used:

• as an industrial solvent and coolant.
• in nuclear power plants.
• in the production of styrofoam.
• as a fire retardant.
• in many forms of cruel animal research.
• in the distribution of pesticides. Even after washing, produce remains contaminated by this chemical.
• as an additive in certain "junk-foods" and other food products.

Companies dump waste DHMO into rivers and the ocean, and nothing can be done to stop them because this practice is still legal. The impact on wildlife is extreme, and we cannot afford to ignore it any longer!

The American government has refused to ban the production, distribution, or use of this damaging chemical due to its "importance to the economic health of this nation." In fact, the navy and other military organizations are conducting experiments with DHMO, and designing multi-billion dollar devices to control and utilize it during warfare situations. Hundreds of military research facilities receive tons of it through a highly sophisticated underground distribution network. Many store large quantities for later use.

Act NOW to prevent further contamination. Find out more about this dangerous chemical. What you don't know can hurt you and others throughout the world. Send email to no_dhmo@circus.com

Am I at more risk than I was during three years in the Army, or working on ratty old rigs offshore in the 60's, or being shot at in northern Namibia at Combat Mines? Is it worse than a mine riot at 3,000', or a cop who doesn't speak English holding a gun to my nose?

F#$% 'em!

"The reason is that in event of even a small radiological or nuclear attack (5-20 kiloton weapon), lethal radiation and fallout will be carried by prevailing winds at least that far. In plain English, if the winds are blowing away from you, you will probably survive if you are 10-20 miles away. However, if winds are blowing toward you, you will probably be dead in a few days. Tin foil hat alert. Lets see, everyone downwind from Hiroshima for up to 50 miles died in a few days? I am so sick and tired of irrational fears of radiation.

I find it interesting that San Diego is listed as a major seaport (?) and not a major military installation. However, San Francisco is not listed as a major seaport, but is listed as a major military installation (?). Weird

[Spyder]

Interesting that they cite Honolulu, especially considering that Hawaii is still at "blue" on the terror alert scale. We haven't even gone to yellow yet, let alone orange.

[Pagey]

If you live within 50 miles of any of the cities listed..."

Great, thanks, but we see them everyday here in L.A. County, and we've been aware of this for quite a while now.What is the general purpose of an article like this? Did the writer think that it would make people start,(Ohhhhhhh Don't You Say It) start uhhhhhh, Profiling? Well, many of us have been doing that daily since 9/11.Are You?

Alright, Reno's not on the list!!! Woo hoo!!!!

[ScottinSacto]

"As you will see, the list includes major government centers (Philadelphia, Miami, Sacramento..."

I think am more terrified of the risks already posed by those operating the "major government centers".
