    Dave -
    
    Maybe you missed the point of my question.  I didn't express an  
    opinion on whether "the National needs for this capability as  
    extremely high"... that would depend on what sort of capability we're  
    talking about, which was the thrust of my question.  A great deal of  
    the work that's been done under the rubric of EDXL-DE appears to have  
    gone one in the relatively restricted field of CBRNE sensor and  
    assessment systems, and (appropriately, no doubt) not much detail has  
    been exposed to outside review, so I'm certainly not qualified to  
    comment on that.
    
    My question... and it was just a question, neither an endorsement nor  
    a critique... was whether your poster intended to propose a solution  
    for public alerting and information applications, as distinct from  
    operational alert and warning within and among responsible agencies.   
    I didn't think it did, but obviously the unqualified term "alert and  
    warning" could mean different things to different people.
