[Misc] These next two Tuesdays. Alert! Alert!

Received these messages whilst in Houston - one was for a child abduction. I thought it was a great idea so I’m glad we’ve bought it in

That would be handy. I'd know when they were onto me.

I’ve survived this long without the government sending out alerts. I live in West Sussex, I doubt anything too life threatening is going to befall us.

Rogue Morris Dancers?

Couple of years back I visited one of the UK's regional underground command and control bunkers from the cold war [Hack Green] - now a museum.
One of the take away facts that has stuck with me is that after a nuclear strike it is expected that the vast majority of deaths occur several days/weeks later. Not from radiation burns / sickness but people trapped in tens of thousands of collapsed buildings and no/limited emergency services to rescue them, by dehydration and/or stavation.

The "lucky" ones are the ones that will die instantly in the immediate explosion.

Like you say "I don't want to know about the nuke strike" either.

Here's a documentary about it: https://archive.org/details/threads_201712

So, did anyone get an alert last Tuesday? I saw nothing on TV nor on social media. Did it not happen here?
