The A.L.E.R.T.S. List
By Richard A. Fleetwood - May 2001
The MANY LISTS BELOW are created for those who would
like to know what is going on around them, by having timely and interesting
news articles and background reports from the field, on topics of interest
in the PREPAREDNESS and MITIGATION world. Being an "infomaniac", I subscribe
to dozens of email lists, run search bots on several news wires on many key
topics, and get forwarded to me LOTS of interesting articles EVERYDAY that
let me learn something new everyday, that will help me know what to watch
out for the future. From FEMA updates, to the United States Fire Administration,
to Scan This News (personal privacy issues), to Hazard Mitigation, to Storm
Warning centers, Natural Hazard Research, to "from the field reports" from
close friends, and so much more. Not every email from every list and every
source is worthwhile, and not every list has "real" news or timely
subjects....but there are occasionaly those "nuggets" of data so valuable
they MUST be shared with as wide an audience as possible. The SINGLE goal
and mission of THIS list is to have a single place where you can get, without
any work on your part, the best and most interesting news on topics that
mean the most to you.....that of BEING PREPARED.
It is a changing world we all live in right now, and while there are people
working hard to make it a little worse each day, there are many more people
working to make it BETTER.
My simple thoughts on "being prepared"? A.L.E.R.T. (Always Learn Every Rotten
Thing) by running it thru the old brain box and seeing what gets sifted out
as NEW and worthwhile info. Yes, it can get hectic, and sometimes downright
overpowering...but with a family that depends on MY knowing what we may need
to work around, or thru, in the future, I get comfort and confidence knowing
my family will be able to depend om me to safely see them thru.
Other items to be sent thru this list? Government reports, threat assessments
from different sources, personal reports on things we should all be weary
of, things that might affect our rights, now AND in the future, Government
and power abuse, self-reliance or self sufficiency issues, and more. It will
NOT be a SPAM list, and while any discussion is fine on any subject, it is
not required.
BEWARE! Somedays you may get 1 or 2 emails.....somedays 10 or more...depends
all on what the daily email in box brings my way. If you don't like to read
much, then consider another source or list to join....there are thousands
out there.
Anyway, if you want to , take advantage of this new project by subscribing
below, and if you feel it worthwhile pass the link to your friends.
