I agree. We are in the wake of the ice storm that passed through the mid west. We have more people without power than with and it has been difficult to track everyone down. Many of the ward members went out of town or even out of state to friends and relatives that have heat and electricity. We are realizing how inadequate our emergency plan is and I wish I had everyone's cell phone. Unfortunately most people don't have email and those that do are more worried about providing food and shelter to their families than checking their email.thedqs wrote:Thing is how often do people check there email? Email isn't very useful for instant communication that cell phones or radios can provide.
I realize we are speaking in general terms in this thread and not in an extreme situation but I sure would like to have everyone's cell phone right now.
