hey calm down a bit Dukey

if people want to use this system to allow ambulance men to tell people that you're dead by voice mail, then fair enough. But my next of kin is recorded clearly in my passport file and i always have ID on me , so it wouldn't take the police THAT long to contact people anyway. And this really sounds like hype to me. A nice idea, but not really necessary or helpful.
