You may have seen this before, but it's new to me. www.ready.gov. Take this link and you will see what looks like an ad flashing with Sesame Street characters. It's no ad. It's a promo on this government website.



If you click on the Ready Kids box, you get taken to an animated page.


The kid's section has a comic strip


Here is a list of things it says to be prepared for:
To see list on site
Overview
Biological Threat
Blackouts
Chemical Threat
Earthquakes
Explosions
Extreme Heat
Fires
Floods
Hurricanes
Influenza Pandemic
Landslide and Debris Flow (Mudslide)
Nuclear Threat
Radiation Threat
Thunderstorms
Tornadoes
Tsunamis
Volcanoes
Wildfires
Winter Storms and Extreme Cold





Either there is something big in the works, or the targeted population just got bigger.

Anyone know how long www.ready.gov has been around??

I would think that such preperation warnings should be geared towards adults rather than children. Imagine being 5 yrs old and seeing, hearing of such things and what kind of effect that would have on a child.

That site should leave the leg work up to the parents and send the message to the parents instead of the targeted age range of kids that site is focusing on.

Cheers!!!!
