Here comes a good tip from the ethersphere.

If you were to keel over tomorrow and someone stumbled across you, who would they contact? Since almost all of us carry mobile phones, one suggestion passing around the world is to enter a contact in you phone that is labeled ICE. ICE stands for In Case of Emergency, logical, makes sense.

While ICE is not a universal approach to figuring out to call to claim you or help you, it is the best approach I’ve seen out there, except for wearing a tag.

The ICE abbreviation helps emergency responders to be able to easily get a clue about who to call, that is unless you’ve got a shortcut for the rapper Vanilla Ice or Ice-T in your contact list.

I am told that the idea was thought up by a paramedic who found that when he went to the scenes of accidents, there were always mobile phones with patients, but he didn't know which number to call. He therefore thought that it would be a good idea if there was a nationally recognized name for this purpose.

For more than one contact name simply enter ICE1, ICE2 and ICE3 etc. It’s a free and easy idea that will make a difference! Let's spread the concept of ICE by storing an ICE number in our Mobile phones today!
