Ram,

I got the alert. Whoop-dee-do. I ignored just like every other alert, i.e. emergency, etc. With our good forum and other sources, it isn’t like i needed the alert in the first place.

Ditto for a simless 'droid phone here that I use for sleeping music to drown out the snoring and fan noise in the bedroom. Seems like the Space Force (Farce?) already exists...

FEMA's Presidential alert was instituted four or five years ago and they're just getting around to testing it now.
