28 Consider what we call things in-situ soil vs. existing soil
29 Consider what we call things What examples can you can think of?
30 Terms we use with citizens
31 Terms we use with citizens We are not alone in sounding stupid There is tons of lighting in this storm Omaha weathercaster May 2013
32 Terms we use with citizens We are not alone in sounding stupid The problem is these numerous QSL cells Omaha weathercaster s next statement
33 Terms we use with citizens 100-year flood
34 Terms we use with citizens Local resident regarding the possibility of a100-year flood event occurring on Omaha s Papillion Creek: That s hogwash!!! I m 89 and I never seen one here.
35 Terms we use with citizens 100-year flood 100 year reoccurrence interval flood
36 Terms we use with citizens A flood that has about a 1% chance of occurring in any year
37 Terms we use with citizens 90 percentile storm
38 Terms we use with citizens 90 percentile storm vs. Ninety percent of all Omaha storms are less than 1
39 Terms we use with citizens 2-year / 24 hour storm event

41 Terms we use with citizens Ok to say technical term then common definition Impress your boss - twice - she ll know you know your stuff - citizens will feel like your talking to them not above them
42 Terms we use with citizens Any examples that you use?
43 Think like a regular person Writing: Read your writing pretending to be your mom. Have a normal person read & then explain it. (Yes, elephant lanes exist in Bangladesh).
44 Think like a regular person Presentations: - Tell the important points, not all points. - Slow down, let it sink in. - (run spell-check)
45 Think like a regular person Use terms Mom would understand (and it s fewer not less )
46 Instill Hope not Fear
47 Instill Hope not Fear Houston we have a problem
48 Instill Hope not Fear Help people understand: - How does this affect me? - Why is this important to me? - What can I do to help?
49 Instill Hope not Fear What if we talked about: - Lives saved - Streams to play in - Clean lakes we can swim in Would we get some respect? -
50 Provide Hope not Fear - Encourage citizens to help whether you include it into your calculations or not - It s important to them - It benefits water quality (it ll keep water clean)
51 Provide Hope not Fear - Encourage citizens to help whether you include it into your calculations or not - It s important to them - It benefits water quality WE ALL WIN
52 Empower fellow citizens to be: Part of the solution - instead of being part of the problem Provide Hope not Fear
53 Provide Hope not Fear One great resource: waterwordsthatwork.com Process lower right corner of website
54 Oh you do, that voodoo, that you do so well Hedley Lamarr in Blazing Saddles - Consider what we call things - Carefully choose terms - Think like regular people - Instill hope not fear
