So you've got some other numbers that we can refer people that want, like the Red Cross,
so that they don't call you guys down at EOC?
I actually broke up there. What question did they have?
They want to get a hold of the Red Cross.
Oh.
So there's some numbers for them, or United Way. We've had requests for United Way.
I really don't. EOC is probably as good a bet as any for them.
Well, I just thought maybe we could alleviate a little bit of their traffic if we could give them some different numbers.
Can you ask somebody down there?
Yeah, I can try. Hang on.
Let's see.
The dispatch center is getting calls from people who want to talk to Red Cross.
Is there a better number or another number that would help you guys, or is this where you wanted to go?
I think they want to all come in here because they just got to the one.
Okay.
Ask him. They got another Red Cross setup.
Okay.
Is this the number that's on the Channel 3 on the TV, I wonder?
You kind of watch here a second, I'll ask.
Terry, if there's a better number, I'll try and get it to you, but right now I think they want it here.
Okay.
Thanks.
