I like spoof websites but some real websites are better than any spoof version you could think for them... http://ready.gov >From the U.S. Department of Homeland Security Terrorism forces us to make a choice. Don't be afraid... B e R e a d y MAKE A KIT Water & Food Clean Air First Aid Kit Supply Checklists Special Needs Items MAKE A PLAN Creating a Family Plan Deciding to Stay or Go At Work and School In a Moving Vehicle In a High-Rise Building BE INFORMED About what might happen Biological Threat Chemical Threat Explosions Nuclear Blast Radiation Threat etc... For instance, if There is a Nuclear Blast "Take cover immediately, below ground if possible, though any shield or shelter will help protect you from the immediate effects of the blast and the pressure wave." You must be kinda Bruce Lee to do that, but the second thing to do is even more interesting: "Quickly assess the situation." For instance, check that your investments are still OK in the stock exchange. Or try to tune CNN in your TV (if you still have one, or a wall to plug it). http://www.ready.gov/nuclear.html It reminds me that episode of The Young Ones in which the hippy creates a nuclear shelter in his shared council flat in London...
