Nice! Do you know how far away that is from Indy? I might have to get up there for a test someday

It's down in Evansville, extreme southwest Indiana
In my opinion, I think there way too many 2001's in Indiana!

Evansville is at the far end of the southwest part of the state. It's right in that little tip on the bottom. If you go through Terre Haute it's about a four hour drive. With the new I-69 through Bloomington it's between 2.5 and 3 hours now.

Pierce County, Washington tests their warning sirens on the first Monday of each month at noon for about three minutes of attack. Our sirens would activate in the event of a mudflow from Mount Rainier, either caused by an eruption or glacial collapse.
