[AccessD] Fw: ICE - In Case of Emergency

Charlotte

..medic alert bracelets serve a certain purpose quite well, but most of us 
don't need or wear one ...ICE has a single purpose which is to tell the 
people trying to notify your next of kin just exactly who YOU want notified 
and how to do it using your own cell phone, which most of us do "wear" in 
one fashion or another :)

..while its true that you can become separated from your cell phone in such 
an emergency, most don't ...and even if you do, you're no worse off than if 
you didn't program the ICE numbers in the first place ...the paramedics and 
police around here are certainly promoting its use.
