[Steppes] Use ICE In Case of Emergency

[Steppes Seneschal]

I got this suggestion as part of an on-line ad.   

It sounds like a good idea to me.

Use ICE In Case of Emergency

One of the difficulties long faced by emergency services personnel is
how to locate next of kin for (or obtain other necessary information
about) a victim who is unconscious, dead, or otherwise unable to
respond to questions. A small British program aimed at addressing this
need has caught on all over the world.

East Anglian Ambulance Services launched a national "In Case of
Emergency ( ICE )" campaign with the support of Falklands war hero
Simon Weston and in association with Vodafone's annual life savers
award. This program advocates that people simply store the word " I C
E " in their mobile phone list, along with the name and contact
information of the person to be called "In Case of Emergency." In an
emergency situation ambulance and hospital staff will then be able to
quickly find next of kin or other designated emergency contact. For
more than one contact name use ICE1, ICE2, ICE3, etc., to indicate the
order of importance.
