speaking as a girl here, if i'm using my cell phone to call for help, i
think it's an excellent thing. scary is calling for help and not being sure
the police could find you.

well, if it were of course there would be a whole new world of advertising,
yes? as you walked by the coke machine on the street your phone would ring
with a "special offer."

have fun,
