Wireless, Emergencies, and Access?

How often do you consider that the technology that our US society uses during natural disasters or other crisis.... might not actually be accessible to everyone?

Luckily, some people are. I sure wasn't until I became involved in some grant application writing for a small grant from FEMA.

This article was insightful. It's a description of a project another group is doing on the issue and focuses specifically on wireless communications in emergencies.
