Reverse 911 for Cell Phones - San Diego
If you live in San Diego, you need to register your Cell Phone for Emergency situations. Let's put the Homeland Security Office to good use. We are paying for them to be there.

ICE your cell phone
On your Cell Phone, you should have your top emergency contact(s) listed in your Contacts under ICE, which stands for In Case of Emergency. I have mine listed as ICE Mom and ICE Daniel. I know if one person is not available, the other is. If you are unconscious, wasted or otherwise impaired and smart enough to have your cell phone on you, the EMTs and doctors can more easily contact people who know you if you have an ICE number listed. You can also put it on the outside of your phone, but that's totally up to you. You can get a cool ICE sticker for two bucks at Ice Sticker.com. Just make sure you put your ICE in your Contacts.

Peace and love,
Angela
