In a few hours, the feds will test Emergency Alert System "Terror
Trigger" cellphones
In a few hours, the federal government, in its infinite wisdom, will
trigger an Emergency Alert System test likely to confuse and confound,
if not trigger terror, for millions of people around the country. Not
only will television and radio be included, but cell phones as well.
So, if you're driving down the freeway and your phone starts making
alarming sounds and receiving surprise text messages, be sure not to
reach for it to find out what the bloody hell is going on and in the
process lose control of your vehicle.
Because yeah, no doubt the feds have REALLY thought this one through
in terms of how it will impact people who aren't expecting it. The
brain trust in action. -L
