It's only a test..


The Emergency Alert System is going to scare lots of people today around 2pm, but the government is trying to limit the impact of fear by telling Americans it's just a test. Don't panic. What is a bit troubling though is the length of time the test will last--three and a half minutes.. If it was a real emergency I'd assume it would be 24/7 broadcasting with the same exact computerized voice and very few details. The real details would come online, unless of course the government snatched control with a kill switch at the last minute and shut down all net connections and took them over for themselves and the military..

Today's potentially frightening test has been planned out for some time.. But the reasoning for it? The disasters the United States and world forced in 2011 make it more clear that this system must be test.. So they say. And disasters did occur a'plenty.

Not to sound the conspiracy alarm or panic button, but this test is intriguing when coupled with a summer announcement from NASA's head telling his employees to prepare for disasters.. Not mentioned of course was what disaster, when, and how bad.. if NASA knew..

Strange year indeed.. 
Earthquakes in the East.. West.. Midwest.. Floods.. Droughts.. Tornadoes.. Tsunamis.. Disease outbreaks.. Hurricanes.. Blizzards in October.
Ok.. I get it,  TEST THE ALERT SYSTEM.
