With reference to last nights quake.
Why does joe public phone the emergency services when something like this happens just to ask was that an earth quake or tell them oh my house just shook.
The emergency services are there for one reason EMERGENCIES ie if your life or your property is in imminent danger then phone them, otherwise your unnecessary call blocks lines intended for emergency use and could stop someone who really needs emergency help from contacting them.
If you want to know what happened put the radio on or the tv for the news.
Anyone agree ?
