Hi Rex,

I was pleased to see NPGS students at the Hancock Co. EOC, we're due to roll
into replace the Mobile Learning Lab's VSAT et al in a few days time, so
Jim and Heather can page back out to Toronto.

FEMA doesn't have a area-global persons-affected db, and has no placns of
record to develop one (the missing count is much higher than the dead, a
it was in the Asian Tsunami. The ARC is only doing shelter-housed padbs,
and has policy and implementation ability issues of the profoundest sort.

You are corret that for large values of use, when the fabric fails and the
services fail, shipping personal status bits (dead|missing|wounded|alive),
is done by low-b/w best-effort mechanisms -- like smtp.

If I run into any NPGS students I'll say "Hello!", my mom was on staff there
for ever.

Eric
