I basically figure if something is big enough to get to this system (it is for things like the prez talking to americans after the next 9/11) I will have already heard the news elsewhere. Probably several times over. Or my normal news app sending me a normal notice.

Whatever it could be, I can't imagine it would be very helpful. "North Korea just bombed your town!". Well what am I going to do about it? Hide in the basement I guess.

my boss is at work "you guy remember that there will be an alert today, remember our president is the best we've ever had and he has good ways of helping the world, so when this goes off, make sure you tell god to thank us for having such a great president"

so I expect some outrage internally at work. rofl I swear utah.

I'm fairly sure such an outburst can be rick rolled into a sexual harassment claim.

Given where I live I expect most of the country would cheer. Not that I would be able to hear it. Just hopefully it would not be on a weekend and on a day when congress was in session too.

I don't think there'd be cheering. More like a modicum of applause with a few polite hoots. And afterwards, a moment of thanks.

That would do.
