My wife & I use small FSR's ( & Extra Batteries) to communicate during
emergencies. We have an evacuation plan;
meeting places / fall backs, etc.

During a real emergency, Cell phones are about as useful as bricks.

The only thing I noticed here in the Houston-Galveston area, this Friday
evening, is that the cell phone systems seem to be overloaded -- clear past
Midnight.
