RantWoman is always ready to preach the gospel of disaster preparedness. Here is a link about awesome opportunities in Seattle with additional commentary from RantWoman as to her Meeting's previous interactions with preparedness and presence in different circumstances.

RantWoman nearly got stuck on
"Please tell us whether you are a Faith-based leader or a member / ambassador representative of your congregation."
RantWoman internal dialogue:
I am definitely faith-based. We are all ministers of God. We don't HAVE leaders. The only leader I recognize is the holy Spirit.
But I do not feel like a member ambassador either. Today for instance someone suggested getting thrown off a bridge sounded like more fun.
RantWoman, it's the Fire Department. How many meetings have you sat through in large rooms with interprettation to and from several languages.
Question from group 1: this is what we think in our country.
Answer: We're the fire department and this is how we do things.
Question from group 2: In our country....
Answer 2: We're the fire department and this is how we do things.
RantWoman, thinking, gosh it's really helpful even to know what my neighbors might be thinking, not to mention "single standard of Truth" as far as the Fire Department!
Now, as to earthquakes .... tsunami...volcanic eruptions ... rain...severe winter storms and snow...landslides ....flooding...meteorites? . sundry Acts of God...climate change?
