    Hey Y’all,

    I just got this in an e-mail from a freind of mine, I kind of think it is a good idea. It just so happens that a short time back my brother managed to get himself sent to the hospital. The only number in his cell phone that he had entered as a full name was mine. The hospital called me first! (Big deal really, I was a thousand miles away) But it did help to get the ball rolling towards putting some of his personal things in order for us. Here is a copy and paste of the E-Mail

    This is worthwhile, because you never know!

    I hope that you never need it, but with so much memory on a cell phone what could it hurt?
