QOTD: "If you look at the troubles which happened in European countries, this is purely because of the accumulated troubles of the worn out welfare society. I think the labour laws are outdated. The labour laws induce sloth, indolence, rather than hardworking. The incentive system, is totally out of whack.

"Why should, for instance, within [the] eurozone some member's people have to work to 65, even longer, whereas in some other countries they are happily retiring at 55, languishing on the beach? This is unfair. The welfare system is good for any society to reduce the gap, to help those who happen to have disadvantages, to enjoy a good life, but a welfare society should not induce people not to work hard."

--Jin Liqun, the supervising chairman of China's sovereign wealth fund

Nation-wide EAS Test?

Complete failure.

Now, every station is required to file "Form 2" at the FCC website. Now, as in right now, today.

But what happens when you go to "www.fcc.gov/nationwideeastest"?

Re-directed to another page.

Do you know what would happen in the event of an actual, nation-wide emergency? DJ's and News Directors would step to a microphone, and begin talking. I've been through a couple of wars, major severe weather events, and a couple of tsunami alerts, and that's what we've done. Because the private ownership of communications facilities is more efficient than attempts to alert from a central point.

It's what radio does.
