Yes , yes , yes ! Well said . Another thing that ' s important is to always keep your phone charged , or have a charger on you when you are driving and traveling . Granted Maura may have had her phone off so she couldn ' t be tracked , or maybe it was a case where she had low battery and her charger wasn ' t working who knows . But if something bad happens , or you can ' t communicate , having a charged cell so police can get a record of your GPS and coordinatedpings can be life saving . Just last month there was the story about the woman who was rammed off the highway and in a ditch for 2 days not visible from the road . Police found her because they were able to trace the cell GPS . Another 12 hours and she wouldnt have made it . Happy Thanksgiving to you too , Mac ! While I don ' t participate that often , I do always read this sub and thoroughly appreciate your participation and comments . You have a great way of looking at and analyzing things with a very solid and rational approach from multiple angles . That means a lot .
