ABSTRACT

We have arrived at a point where hopefully everyone knows much more on the topic of threat Prevention, Detection, and Response and the many activities that go into the processes of achieving preparedness. The greatest place to be is here — with perhaps, newly acquired knowledge to actually contribute in measurable ways to Homeland Security. It is also the most dangerous place to be, having just received a dose of privileged information that at one time was reserved for elite units and senior government leaders — but which we all now have a need to know because of the world we live in today. Of course, on that note everything shared with

you is publicly available information. Nevertheless, you are either trying to help protect this country or you had ulterior motives — in which case, I hope you now see the light. Perhaps you can join the rest of us who are trying to preserve humanity and precious resources.
