This is absolutely pathetic! God help us if there is ever a dirty 

bomb. The sign posted at the state boundary (the state so unlucky to 

have the device go off) will be,, the last person leaving the state 

please turn off the lights!



If I had the power, I'd fire Mr. Mitrch and all the cronies who 

pepetuate these fears. And he calls himself an Emergency Management 

Coordinator? 



Give me a break!
