    I received this email circulating the World.
    It seems like a great idea.
    Maybe pass it on.

    isnt ICE also the name of an emergency medical procedure?

    believe that you are thinking of RICE (Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation) for skeleto-muscular injuries.

    Good idea tho... I think I will be doing some editing in my cell tonight.

    Pass it on, one and all.

    It may also help improve the organ donation rates in the sad event that you lose a loved one who has approved the donation of their vital organs to save another life, or lives. Bazza

    Provided they know who Mum and Dad are. ;)

    This is exactly the point of ICE (ICE1 and ICE2, for example).
    Re-read the original post #1, to see what they are suggesting.

    Thus you would have 2 entries for Mum and Dad, each.
    As Mum and Dad, and as ICE1 and ICE2 for emergency services.

    I'll be danged, I thought ICE stood for Internal Combustion Engine, the acronym has been used for decades in combat robotics.

    Unfortunately here in OZ, it is more and more referring to methylamphetamine (sp?) drug.
    Our government has just released many millions to beef up the fight against ICE (the drug). Bazza

    I had my previous cell setup like this. I was riding motorcycles almost daily, so I set my phone up with ICE listings in my contact list. I have yet to do this to my new cell, but I will now thanks for the heads up.

    Methamphetamine or "ice" is a huge problem here in Oregon. However, I really don't think any drug users are going to put their local dealer into their cell under the name "ICE" ;)

    Now Lev, I can't speek for Mini, but at my age you don't loose things, you just file them in a safe place, for an extended period. A real extended period.
