Emergency Communications for the LDS Church - Howard's Notebook

? The LDS (the Mormons) have an emergency communications system for the Mormon Church:

?

??Amateur radio

When all other communication methods fail, amateur radio (HAM) has proven to be extremely effective and reliable. Amateur radio operators provide their own equipment and expertise, and they practice and prepare to provide emergency communications. [definitions and links to ARES and RACES will be needed].

The church has an emergency communications organization that includes amateur radio operators at church headquarters and select Bishop Storehouses specifically trained to provide Emergency Response Communications (ERC)??

? They use more than just Amateur radio but I just posted the ham part above.? You can see more on their church/religion communications plan at:? LDS Tech

?? I find it very strange and very odd and a bit scary that Mitt Romney wants to do away with FEMA.
Plus now since Hurricane Sandy hit he is refusing to talk about his plan to do away with FEMA.? The media has been asking him and he will not say a word about it.
? You would think that he would have to answer.? You would think that he could come up with some sort of statement.? But he just will not answer the questions.?
?? I would think that would hurt? him big time but he refused to release his tax return and that does not seem to have hurt him.
