Dude...step away from the text.

It was a test and A TROLL. Obamugabe created it and GEOTUS, true to his gestalt, used it to troll the neo-communits.

I didn’t keep it...he made his point.

I agree that it was a test and a troll.

But the issue I have is that *IF* at some future time it is used in a genuine emergency, it would be nice to be able to keep the message.

I didn’t keep a copy, nor did I want to. Nor was I able to, AFAIK. But in a real emergency, if the message contained important info, I’d want to keep it.

Just because your enemy builds a boat, that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t sail in it if you need to go somewhere.

Persactly. Lest there be cornfushion:

BACKGROUND ON SYSTEM: The WEA system, launched in 2012, is used to warn the public about dangerous weather, missing children, and other critical situations through alerts on cell phones.

faQ:

10.Will I receive a WEA message if I’m visiting an area where I don’t live, or outside the area where my phone is registered?

Yes, if you have a WEA-capable phone and your wireless carrier participates in the program. (More than 100 carriers, including all of the largest carriers, do.)

I kept it for posterity. Do you think it was an implied threat to @jack that if he tries to censor the President on Twitter he’ll just turn to the phones?
