MLPNET!!! FREQ NASA_MLP from 1:350/111 for information! The NASA MLP BBS (206)871-8089 THE NASA MLP BBS of Port Orchard, WA Media Release--08024 Reporting on ALL earthquakes worldwide on a timely basis, with a special emphasis on LOCAL quake activity. NO ONE ELSE has our ONLINE MOUNT RAINIER SUBBOARD, complete with mountain history, volcanic status, park activities and events, etc. An ONLINE COUNTER counts the number of elapsed days since Mt. St. Helens eruption and last significant (5.0+) Seattle quake. Where other BBS systems are forced to rely on external e-mail networks (FidoNet, MaxNet, Intelec, etc) we OWN and OPERATE our own network (MLPNet), which extends to Germany and Australia. Much of what we have is NOT available elsewhere! We custom- program our OWN doors and educational materials. Over 100 graphic images DIRECT FROM NASA of the Shoemaker-Levy 9 comet impact with Jupiter! We also have the OFFICIAL NASA Press Kit for this event! More coming! The press kit for the NEXT shuttle mission is ALWAYS available well ahead of the scheduled liftoff. We have, on occasion, NASA engineers DIRECTLY involved with our system. We have EXTENSIVE online and downloadable materials relating to quake preparation and survival. We have plans available to local schools on developing school safety programs. A map of Washington's current and ancient faults hangs on our wall and we track EVERY local quake. We have a VERY PRECISE history of our area available in our QUAKE door. Jim Coleman (Sysop) wrote a custom ONLINE game, which simulates victim extrication from heavy debris environments. Direct Internet USENET access to SCI.CA.QUAKES and SCI.SPACE.SHUTTLE newsgroups!
