My cellphone rings without any simm card. All I have to
do is to set the alarm clock function.

Yes, that works here too.
Even when the thing is off!
But what I ment is that I got the impresion it was really ringing,
like they dialed it, and for that you need a SIM.
Of cause if you had the phone, a look in the flash would reveal
much of what they had done (likely some card was in it for testing).
Probably we will not hear details for obvious reasons.
But again, do not blame it on cellphones, if these were not
available they would use something else I am sure.
In fact the phone gave them away!

We will have to live with the danger.
I missed an IRA bomb by one minute years ago in London,
just clearly remember the thought 'shall I go have a cup of coffee
in that Wimpy (coffee bar), or go back to the office (tube across it)'.
We had to go for a production to Italy next day or so, and had a lot to do
(was working in London in that time).
So I took the tube back to the office, whan I arrived there it was on the
news that a IRA bomb was in that coffee shop.
So, dangers surround us all the time, why we move, and how we move, our timing,
be concious.
