2) It's about an hour long. You should be snoozing by then!

E-Lert, Pinellas County's monthly emergency management newsletter, captured the coveted statewide Public Education/Information Award at the 2007 Governor's Hurricane Conference on May 16. Tom Iovino, the e-newsletter’s editor, was honored at an awards banquet. E-Lert was singled out for this prestigious award for providing valuable information to residents and visitors about severe weather and protective measures. I am one happy guy! :-)
