Hello
I created an idea in IDEABLOG website that has really taken off. I have the ability to provide micro radios to kids for less than $1. each in high volumes. They can fit on a keychain or backpack. They can be activated by the kids in time of disaster. The radios battery will last for approximately 18 hours allowing emergency communications to broadcast messages to our kids to instruct them on what to do next.
One might wonder why this is neccessary. Well there is a window of opportunity where your kids are either catching a bus to or from school, walking to or from school, or in a school whos emergency equipment has been damaged by the earthquake. They can be essentially caught in the middle of nowhere. The point is you are not there with them and cant protect them. Your radio is in your car or home but not with your kids. They dont know where to go or what to do if they are caught in the middle.
What I am talking about is a window of time that will matter if it ever happens. For the low cost of < $1.00 per child you can be assured they will receive the proper messages at the time they need them.
