A must read book

I first posted this on 8.14. After the last month with Katrina and Rita, I think this bears repeating:

Hi Folks,

I usually lurk over on the Engineering and Seattle Boards, but I wanted to share something with you folks.

I just recieved an incredible book "Broadcasting Through Crisis", by Dr. Ann Utterback, PhD. Her specialty is teaching Broadcasters how to deal with stress.

This 150 page book is full of very easy to understand and useful stuff written for the Broadcaster in mind.

Plus, some stories written by Broadcasters, such as the WTOP reporter who actually witnessed the plane hit the pentagon on 9/11.

I have no connection with this book other than as a reader. Trust me, folks, if you read it, you will want everyone on your staff to read it.

It REALLY is that good.

Thanks for the tip. Grabbed one -- $12 on Amazon.

You all may appreciate the irony of the following message:

*** We're sorry. This item can't be shipped to your selected destination due to Hurricane Katrina. You may change the shipping address and proceed with your order or try again later. ( Click here for more information.) ***

Huh? Ah yes, the last Amazon order I placed was when I lived in NOLA. Wonder if the book has a chapter on the stress caused by trying to order the book? :)
