Re: Sun aims to bolster disaster warning systems

That's a good idea. There should be more warning systems on The Sun; anything that helps to avoid that awful sunburn on my oh-so-Seattle-pale haole skin.
(I never try to get a tan --- I just try to neutralize the blue tint a little; best I can hope for is "dark pale.")

Sun Microsystems is a computer company that makes software for computers.

Maybe I should have choose a better piece to quote, but I wanted to show the relavency of this to Hawaii.
