No - I use the ICE system, I thought it was international!
(In Case of Emergency - apparently people look for that number on mobs)

wrongly.. going senile..<g>
Also when you open one as ICE , can't you list several numbers under the one
name, in your phone that is? like any contact, if a person has several
numbers when you look up ICE it will then bring up the list of contacts.
Also bracelets or necklaces are worn with all details of the wearer on them
over here, never worn one or seen one, accept for magazine pics so don't
know how they actually work. I think these are more for instant meds if the
wearer is a diabetic or has been stung by a bee or something like that.

I just have ICE 1, ICE 2 and ICE 3, that's the list of numbers in preferred
order.
