  Hi All, 

  I am a researcher at the Shepherd Center in Atlanta. I am working on a research project on the use and usability of wireless technology by people with disabilities. 

  We are currently conducting a survey about two aspects of the way people with disabilities use emergency communications:

  1) contacting 911 emergency services like fire, ambulance, police, etc. 
  2) receiving alerts about public emergencies like weather alerts, Amber alerts, etc. 

  It would help me a lot if you could take our survey. It takes only a few minutes. You can take the survey on-line at: http://www.wirelessrerc.org/news/take-the-2010-Emergency-Communications-survey.html <http://www.wirelessrerc.org/news/take-the-2010-Emergency-Communications-survey.html> 

  If you prefer to take the survey over the phone, you can call me toll-free at: 1-800-582-6360. 

  All participants will be entered into a drawing for a $250 Amazon gift card. The drawing will take place during the first week of January 2011.

  I'll be sure to post results from the survey when we finish collecting data. 

  Thanks so much for your help! 

  --John
