I'm currently writing a disaster preparedness plan for our curatorial
facility here at Ft. Bliss. I've found http://www.fedworld.com and the
http://www.fema.gov pages invaluable. I have some other www home pages from
U Colorado at Boulder that get into specifics of different types of disaster
preparedness including earthquakes. Of course, all the information is at the
office, so I'll post it to you tomorrow. If you'd like me to e-mail you a
list of sources off-list, please send me your e-mail address (i have between
15 and 20 addresses including FAQ, FTP, and a "DISASTER-L" type list).
