This posting covers two items:

One is the nice write-up in a blog on the Seattle Neighborhoods Actively Prepare (SNAP). It highlights the work of Debbie Goetz who works for Seattle Office of Emergency Management.

The other thing I'd like to call your attention to is the source of the blog. It is carried as being associated with the Seattle PI Newspaper (only printed online these days) with the author coming not from the paper but a neighborhood based blog.

Citizen journalists! Why can't we tap into the power of the people in the same way for emergency management? Use the technology of today to spread the word of SNAP, or any other information you have to share.
