Changes

Hello,

NLC CERT members ... I'm Ron Thomas the webmaster of this site... You will see many changes happening to your site as we begin updating it from it's original format. Nothing should be lost and everything will be enhanced... Give us 3 or 4 days to complete everything and then you can comment.

Blogger has made many changes and in order to keep up we have to change the site.... Another change that is happening is Barb Dudley from Central Coast CERT Newport is coming on board to help keep this site updated and to edit the technical end. She can put on slide shows for you and pictures.... Polls, etc. We have been working together for years and she is the main contributor to the Central Coast Cert website... many of you know her already.

You can continue to make entries in the usual manner via email. We have that part fixed...
