I have access to situation reports from the UN Disaster Relief Organization (UNDRO) in Geneva and can make these available to teachers and students where there is interest and it is appropriate. The sitreps are produced irregularly, but there are generally two or four each week. They are between a third of a page and two pages or so in length (300K to 1500K). If anyone is interested in seeing samples and current sitreps, I will be happy to feed them to you. There are regularly disaster situations reported that cover floods, earthquakes, fires, storms, and more from countries around the world. Damage assessments, casualties, and responses are the types of information covered in these reports. Follow-up reports track the situation with a particular disaster episode. I am not enough familiar with the K12 system to suggest that the sitreps should be passed as messages through this echo, however, it is possible. If this is not an activity that would properly operate across K12 echos or if there is another K12 mechanism better suited for such distribution, someone should alert me. In addition they could be passed as messages to internet addresses, and that may be preferable. If you are interested, you may respond to me on this echo or direct a message to me at the following FidoNet address: Richard Muffley 1:109/349.776 -- uucp: uunet!m2xenix!puddle!109!172!Richard.Muffley Internet: Richard.Muffley@f172.n109.z1.fidonet.org
