Chair, I was just going to tell you about this warning. As I was listening to the G. Gordon Liddy show on a Nashville station, they interrupted with their full-warning system and read this warning. It wasn't until the very end that I even knew it was a test.

It was kind of alarming to hear the signals as I had no reason to think it had anything to do with the weather.
