Re: [emergency-adopt-events] FW: Mass Casualty Conference at theCDC

[Rex Brooks <rexb@starbourne.com>]

First I
ve heard of this specific event, but a similar use case was suggested to 
me during a presentation I attended on Semantic Technologies for 
Healthcare Reform this morning at the Semantic Technology Conference. 
Apparently, many people appear to have been sensitized to the 
difficulties that will be presented by a mass casualty event.

You know attending these sessions is really a lot more fun and 
stimulating than rehearsing like mad and giving a presentation onesef. ;-)

Cheers,
Rex
