...and YOUR opinion is not warranted, also you need to use proper grammer( if they still teach that in schools) when addressing the forum as well ...even if your joking and just kidding,a smiley face is not going to sooth things over this time. If a moderator or member of the administrative staff takes issue with the all caps then so be it...an honest mistake on my part since it was a cut and paste from an official release ......I will , how ever , not be impugned by some one..you..who is old enough to be my son. Now I understand that there are a handful, at best, members over the age of 35, so if I do indeed do or say something that is in direct violation of the rules and policies that have been set forth and established for this site, then I will take what is due to me...so long as it is from a real moderator or real member of the administrative staff verses a member at large.

You and your ilk is the reason that responsible members of this site had to take the measures to keep posters like yourself, as an example, from posing as wannabe moderators and/or disturbing what should other wise be routine, normal threads and post.

Before you delve into some snarky reply to this post , you may want to consider what credibility you have lost and will loose screwing with this OLD man.....

Will anyone be able to capture the Emergency Alert System activation from these drills?

I am some what surprised that Texas does not partake in this exercise...how soon they (gov't officials) forget the many killer Tornados, let alone Tornados in general, that have occurred in Texas.... http://www.srh.noaa.gov/ama/?n=top10_tornadoes ....since weather records have been kept for the state.

I want to make a confession.

I'm absolutely terrible with forums. It's hard to keep up with the ever changing protocols for posting, and saying the right things at the right time.

At first, I didn't know that the OP was actually being serious or just stating a point. I usually treat all caps as screaming, and I'm sorry for the misunderstanding.

Well last March I filmed Holton,KS doing their test along with WFO Topeka's EAS activation. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w4Tjptx_mqo

Not sure what I want to film this time around. Holton has the best ambiance around that I know of. Where ever I go, I'll probably try and get the EAS in the background again tho!
