so you've never been the victim of a crime? lucky you. i suggest you check out american crime stats, and then consider your chances of never suffering a crime over a lifetime. i keep making this point, but it seems to have gotten lost. this isn't just a "safety" app. its civic awareness. report a lost or found pet, a pothole, etc... and it goes beyond that. the idea of it is to disseminate pertinent info in real time to a local region. btw, if i were your insurance company, i'd drop you. whats your real name, ben rothelisburger? -- MrSinatra www.lion-radio.org using: sb2 & sbc (my home) / sbrec & ipeng (parents' home) - sbs 7.5.2b - win xp pro sp3 ie8 - p4(ht) 3.2ghz, 2gig ram - 1tb wd usb2 raid1 - d-link dir-655 - 45k+ mp3 ::VOTE FOR 'BUG 15604' (http://bugs.slimdevices.com/show_bug.cgi?id=15604)!!!:: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ MrSinatra's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2336 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=82366 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
