Bobert, do you remember, in your post, where Rep. Shays referred to the Mayor and the Governor as incomptents?

Still waiting for an answer as to where in the NPR does it say that state responders are local and state people. The Governor is out of the picture?????????? quoting you.

This is not worth my time. You act like a bully hoping that people, which I have noticed some do, will accept your diatribe. a 100 pages of what? Really impressive! Not!....I don't care for this method of discussion, am used to it on a personal basis.

So, will depart for a while, not giving up but just utilizing my time better. This type of corresponding would be fine for houebound people but good serious discussions are better done and more fun when face to face. Plus, I see your approach is one of putdown which is the format of a bully and one who doesn't have a clear grasp of the situation. This format is not my cup of tea - it would appear to be a type for those who are introverted or can not handle face to face reality. Later.............
By the way, I have a copy of the National Response plan and I did not have to go through 100 pages to ascertain responsibility factor.
