Hi wayne,

I am finding this discussion about how hearing impaired can or might be alerted when emergency sirens are blowing quite interesting.

In my area, emergency sirens are tested and heard all over the area on the last Friday of every month. While I harbour no unrealistic fears of a massivce terrorist attack, it has occurred to me that I cannot hear sirens sounding and unless in the company of someone else, I would not even know anything was happening.

Keepin' the faith!
