I was reading on another site: Instead of fire sirens,the local authorities sent out texts

Why?

That is the big question. Not everyone has a cell phone. Survivors were saying cell service was dead.

Because sending a text is modern and not old. Just like electric vehicles. Who needs a reliable internal combustion engine car. Tried and true methods don’t work in the modern age.

Those old farts don’t know jack

Sirens would have been better in all seriousness. The old ways work in many cases.
