I do think that a national SMS alert system would be more prevalent than the older TV broadcast alert version. If you consider that most people have mobile phones in the US and they can receive these alerts even when they aren't at home. Personally I'm very excited about this FCC regulation. How many times can you say that in a life-time :p Steve: Great point! I do think that a national SMS alert system would be more prevalent than the older TV broadcast alert version.

Personally I’m very excited about this FCC regulation. How many times can you say that in a life-time :p
