"A Day Called X"

They named a day after me! Too bad it was the (simulated) day the (simulated) response of (real) Portland, Washington Oregon (dadburned geography!) to a (simulated) atom-bomb bomber attack (simulatedly) occurred:

...Meanwhile, ain't nobody official got nothing planned for an Egypt-type massive outbreak of civil unrest. I'm pretty sure Portland-style -- or, more like it, New Orleans-style -- evacuation won't work out very well.

Perhaps one might care to consider making one's own plans?

    Actually, NorCom has been planning for massive civil unrest, including protest by hungry folk looking for food. There was recently an article which made the rounds, including a picture of soldiers putting down a simulated food riot here at Fort Richardson in Anchorage.

    Larry, you Batsidge, you beat me to it! ;-) Darn this working for a living!

    Ahhh, Captain Glenn Ford, UNSR. (Who had not actually re-entered service at this point...)

    Plans have been made, supplies have been gathered, skills have been practiced, communications are in place. Hope they never have to be used, but...

    Perhaps I'm a bit cynical these days, but the whole program seemed to be a commercial for an elaborate taxpayer-funded Golgafrincham Ark B, the one holding the tired TV producers, the hairdressers and the telephone handset sanitizers.

    Meanwhile the guys who build and maintain the infrastructure remain at their posts awaiting the mushroom clouds.

    The city may be leveled but thank $DIETY water and sanitation billing can continue!
