Agreed, but isn't it the same with all warning systems. You drill too much, too often you given warnings and sirens, and whats the result? People forget that this is a real danger, instead, everytime, they think it is just a warning or a major event.
I saw a piece on CNN that shows officials are cognizant of the problem in at least one area (I think it was the Oregon coast). Seems that they routinely test their Tsunami warning system, but for the tests, rather than have sirens blaring out, they broadcast the sound of a mooing cow. :-) Patrick
