This little tract is likely to be more frustrating than anything else.  It's from the Rand Company and is dated 2003, and I assume that somewhere someone did some actual research with a good report at the end of it, but what you get here is the equivalent of someone's bulleted slide presentation.It talks ever-so-briefly about Biological, Chemical and Nuclear attack, but generally won't be useful unless one of these events takes place close to your place of work.  It tells you, for example, "[I]f attack is indoors, follow chemical attack plans specific to your building."  Whoop.And yet, its not entirely without interest.  One thing I thought was interesting was their reference to smallpox.  As you know smallpox is a disease that's been eradicated and only exists in labs in the US and Russia.  Hmm.The other thing I learned, which I hadn't thought about, is that if there's a nuclear attack, and one happens to be around tall buildings, one should get to as high a floor as possible, as long as it's also 3 stories beneath the roof.  Thus you'd be above contamination on the ground, and away from radioactive dust that will land on the roof.But generally, I don't think most people are going to find this to be 3-Stars.  There's just too little information of the sort I believe most people would be expecting.Pam T~notes: downloaded this for free.  There were no typos that I noticed and the presentation was without flaw.
