[PPRAANet] Fw: Lighthouse presentation

[Phillip H. Blanton]

What is the point of re-inventing ARES? We have ARES. We are ARES. Why 
wouldn't the county just use ARES or RACES which they also already have; 
rather than complicating the issue with yet another  bunch of hams that 
we need to coordinate with?

Seems to me like they should call it YASTAPPACTOWE...

Yet Another Solution To A Perceived Problem Adding Complexity That 
Otherwise Wouldn't Exist.

But what do I know... I don't own a suit.

Should start around 10 AM, if anyone would like to attend.  Lighthouse Prime is Peggy Littleton's concept of using various means to include amateur radio to disseminate information to communities during disasters.  It is not RACES and maybe a little bit ARES, but more like a smaller, local version of the NTS.
