I live in Florida, I doubt that me seeing an amber alert will do anything at all. The whole idea of an amber alert is for quick response so that they don't go to other states or countries. I am more inclined to agree with Pete, if you feel the need to post an amber alert just do it on cf-community. That list is for anything and everything, this list is for CF talk.

You have a valid opinion. The only comment I would make ( and I don't say this to argue with you or invalidate your opinion ) is that afaik the police and so forth who are looking for the missing child may not know where that child is. Sure, the child may have lived in CA, but kidnappers have been known ( though it may not be the most common behavior ) to drive all the way accross the country with their victims... or given circumstances, to Canada or Mexico, maybe even get a flight overseas. Who's to say where they'll go, though I will admit I'd expect the odds to be slim that they'd find their way out of nearby or neighboring states.
