Thought some of you gearheads might be mildy interested in the following: Disclaimer: I don't have nuttin' to do wid nobody. This site not only tells how to get a computer to automatically alert you when a weather warning for your area is issued, it tells how to set off a whole series of alarming events: activate your pager, shake your bed to wake you, trip sirens, flash strobe lights. A company called Xenocode has created software which intercepts via the Net the EMWIN (Emergency Managers Wireless Information Network) broadcast from the National Weather Service. Download trial software free; pay $80 if saving your fellow villagers from needless death by flood, tornado, avalanche, hypothermia, etc. means anything to you. <http://www.byteblast.com/usmap.asp> *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List Submissions: paddlewise_at_lists.intelenet.net Subscriptions: paddlewise-request_at_lists.intelenet.net Website: http://www.gasp-seakayak.net/paddlewise/ ***************************************************************************Received on Mon Mar 01 1999 - 07:57:59 PST
