This is a Drill! This is Only a Drill This is a PRACTICE scenario--not a PANIC scenario. It's also a practice in recycling JUNK into something that can be as worthwhile as to save lives. What more could you ask for, right?   As you may know if you’re spend time with us on our Facebook page, there are has been a LOT of “chatter” coming at me via various information resources.
