Wandering around the 'hood the other day I snapped this pic. The sign is hanging near an entrance to the former Buffalo Traditional High School here in Masten.
Imagine 700-800 students jamming into a place designed for 205! I remember the 'duck and cover' exercises in grade school that might have been part of the same charade back in the day. Are these shelters still active? I thought at one time Erie County Civil Defense, with bunkers out in Chestnut Ridge Park were administering programs like this.
Are the programs still active? Do these signs mean anything now...that Home Land Security is looking out for us, today? Let me know...
