Yeah i dont see a problem with it and will keep it turned on if it works as intended, its just countries with earthquakes etc will have implemented it a long time ago.
Man of Honour
and that's the answer, leave it on and if it becomes a distraction turn it off.

Phones these days have so many notification options you can just set it to silent anyway if the siren is over the top.

Was it today it meant to go off?.
Yes, if yours didn't go off, you need to report to your local council to ensure you are correctly registered. You can be fined if you don't.

Well what a horrible noise that was at 2pm, about 10 of us in a corridor outside the Operating Theatres and I could hear phones going off through the Theatres doors.
I bet patients in the wards were scared out of their wits.

Nostromo or Silent Hill? I wonder which they'll opt for.

My 2g phone didn't emit a single peep. Should I upgrade or judge by the reactions of people around me.

Then you get vapourised in blissful ignorance!
To be fair though, if we do get a warning about incoming nukes, there's little that can be done unless you live far away from a large city or strategic area... And then we have the nuclear winter to look forward to!
What a delightful thought for Monday morning!
