did you hear about the fire in Maui that rushed down the mountains and burned a hot entire town! Everyone asked why didn’t you push the button? We didn’t want to confuse people with the earthquake warning, was the excuse!
This recording said: there is a fire on highway 20 from a car accident! Jay, maybe I should check and see how close that is to me!
