True enough. Though apparently you do occasionally get the same kind of
emergencies the rest of us do. One day, driving near Meridian,
Mississippi, I heard the EAS tones go off. Skies in Mississippi were
clear, with not a hint of severe weather. Announcer came on and said
"The National Weather Service has issued a severe thunderstorm warning
for...


Marin and Sonoma Counties in Northern California."


(it was a satellite-fed translator of a San Francisco station...)


Gee, I wonder who that would have been? Stares at feet.
