Here's the first draft of our glossary of terms for the ready.gov website:

a solid which can poison the people and the environment.
"Dirty Bomb": The use of the common explosives to draw aside the
radioactive material surplus per sector concerned. Moreover known as
radiation attacks, "a dirty bomb" is not a nuclear breath, but rather an
explosion with the localised radioactive contamination.

prejudicial of pressure and the widespread radioactive material which can

thyroid gland of radioactive iodine absorbing.

appear on the face and the body of an infected person.

It's been pointed out to me that there are some grammatical errors, but I
think you'll get the gist of it. I think you''l be pleased to learn that
my staff continus to find new and intestine uses for the duck tape you
sent us. There has been som confusson reg: the use of garbage bags for
personal sanitary needs, though. We may need to ask for additional moneys
for the custodial budget this month.
Please let me now if you think any revisions are necessarry. Ill do my
best to implement them before we put the websit onlone.
Yours truley,
Tom
