 Practice
makes perfect
It was
only a drill!
[JULY
29, 2000] At
approximately nine o’clock this morning a tornado of unknown size
and intensity struck the west side of Lincoln, causing significant
damage at the American Freightways terminal.
This same tornado proceeded on a northeasterly course, and
about five minutes later struck Atlanta.
There it caused some structural damage to the city
warehouses, where a fire occurred.
A natural gas leak, downed power lines, a chlorine spill,
several auto accidents, and an anhydrous tank fire were also
reported. Click here
to view more pictures of the drill.

Finally
moving into
the fast lane
[JULY
29, 2000] Sit
back, close your eyes (ok, that doesn’t work very well here) and
imagine this. You are in your convertible. With the top down.
Driving along peacefully. On the interstate. Your right foot pressed
all the way to the floor. The wind in your hair. Just humming along.
In the slow lane. Screaming along at about 14 miles per hour.

Pickle
and pickle product problems
[JULY
29, 2000] Making
homemade pickles is a time-consuming and expensive operation. There
are a variety of different steps along the road from cucumbers to
sweet gherkins, so there are a number of places where the process
