[FADCA] More Sedan

Cutting right to the chase:  Read Chuck's email thoroughly.  Then read it
again.

We have an opportunity to make a presentation at the State level on how the
layered packet network can be used to good advantage for emergency
communications.  I think we should do it.  This would be on Saturday May 4
in Tallahassee.

We can no longer sit back and bitch that someone (T. Nolan/SEDAN)  has a
lock on the State EOC!  If we make a presentation and fail, so be it, then
we will know we just couldn't cut the mustard.

If no one else can/will I will volunteer to FADCA to volunteer to John
Fleming / Tom Nolan to make a presentation at the SEDAN meeting in Tampa in
early May.  Who ever makes the presentation should not be there w/o any
physical support... He will need a cheering session and maybe a body guard!

That said, you need to know my Mad Plan for Florida is not "FADCA" network,
but a FADCA-sponsored layered packet network, which includes LANs/backbones,
and HF ARQ links.

Interesting that John Flemming indicated "FADA" didn't have much coverage
north, but did not say that SEDAN had absolutely no coverage south in the
State!
