[EAS] WEA used in NYC bombings

I too found it strange that an alerting system that is supposed to "ring the
bell" in case of an emergency was used, as someone else phrased it, a wanted
poster.  I'm just curious to know where this is all heading.  

Dave, I suspect that terrorism was not in the minds of those that came up
with the present library of Event Codes...or when the FCC gave birth to EAS.
As a public warning system the system should be able to be used to warn the
public about something that they are concern with.   I suspect that
terrorism is pretty high on the list these days.
