Good gravy!

"Monmouth County to stockpile pills in Millstone: Bioterrorism plan begins to take shape" -- The Examiner, 2/15/07
In Millstone Township, the county-owned Charleston Springs Golf Course would serve as the depot where pills and emergency equipment such as generators, lights, trucks and forklifts would be kept.

The depot in Millstone would mainly serve as a place where Millstone residents and people from the surrounding areas could go to pick up pills such as amoxicillin and Cipro in the event of a bioterrorism attack or flu epidemic.

Grbelja, who was recently named OEM coordinator for the township, said Millstone shall assume a leading role in any potential disaster.

The mayor said the township will soon survey its residents to see what their talents are and which type of services they could provide in the event of an emergency.
Gathering residents' skill sets! Gosh, we recorded skill inventories for strike duty if the CWA walked out.

Read the entire article. There isn't a single aspect of this arrangement that makes sense.
