The Obama administration will take over ALL nation-wide communication channels??? No way, right???

The FCC will conduct a nation-wide EAS (emergency alert system) test on all media (something that only the POTUS can order/use) on November 9th. This is a rather disconcerting fulfullment of some Ron Paul (and ultra-conservatie & prepper blogs) prophetic forecasts. I don't really know what to make of it, but I don't like the smell of it...

"The Emergency Alert System (EAS) is a national public warning system that requires broadcasters, cable television systems, wireless cable systems, wireline video providers, satellite digital audio radio service providers and direct broadcast satellite service providers to make their communications facilities available to the President during a national emergency."

"Although state and local EAS tests already occur on a weekly and monthly basis, respectively, the November 9th test will be the first end-to-end test of the nationwide system, involving all EAS Participants in a synchronized, simultaneous exercise. The purpose of the November 9th Nationwide
EAS Test is to make sure that the nationwide system will work as designed. Accordingly, this initial Nationwide EAS Test will have some specific differences from the weekly and monthly tests that EAS Participants generally perform. For more detailed information, refer to the FCC’s Nationwide EAS Test web site at: http://www.fcc.gov/nationwideeastest" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;.

Timed the day after Nov 8th elections to test .... because overseas there were riots the day after elections ... so this will be sure we are prepared for 2012.

This is only a test.

Also, there's a Tsunami alert test the same day 11/9/2011 http://t.co/lhDmUrmE" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

No worries, just avoid the asteroid http://www.reuters.com/article/2011/11/ ... FN20111104" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
A huge asteroid will pass closer to Earth than the moon Tuesday.

And, stay away from Earthquakes.... though Oklahoma quakes weren't near plate edges ... sooo ..

epicenter, in Garland, Texas

"Oklahoma is not on active plate like Haiti and other earthquake-prone regions," said Holland.

"We know that this is an old fault, now reactivated, interacting with the North American plate and generating pressure," said Holland.

Since it came from Texas, and it's an old fault ... must be Bush's fault

I don't watch TV or listen to radio (aat least not in the RF sense) so I guess I'll miss the fun.
