How effective will this be?
To start with what was posted:

GET INSIDE
- Fast
- Get into a building
- Move away from windows
STAY INSIDE
- Shut doors and windows
- Go to the middle of the building
- Get Clean Immediately
- Remove clothing and shower with soap or shampoo
STAY TUNED
- FollowMedia
- Sign up for Notify NYC
- Officials will send wireless emergency alerts (WEAs)


So, I see lots of "cheeky" comments. It is a news station, "slow news day?", it is good advice. Will it save everyone - nope. Will it save anyone - "maybe". And yes, I know, if anyone suggest that anyone should do anything that is not 100% effective, well, there is no point to it, is there?

If they do nothing they are criticized, if they do anything they are criticized.

I think we could shorten any post about NY or CA into "New York" or "California" period, and I am sure there would still be plenty of posts talking about what is wrong there.
