Listening to the radio on the way to school, I was tickled by this comment by one presenter to another about the Vic Police's initiative to send out text messages to all residents.
"The police love me," he declared, because he'd received a text message and his co-presenter was still waiting for his.
What's this text message about?
Mine says: Extreme weather in Vic expected Mon night & Tues. High wind & fire risk. Listen to local ABC Radio for emergency updates.
Everyone I've talked to thinks it's a great idea using technology at a time like this.
It's nice to know Big Brother is thinking of us, even if we know they can only be in so many places at one time.
Let me get out our torches and candles, just in case there's another power failure...
