Hi Barry,

It all seems to have been made more complicated than necessary.
Why can't FEMA send to everyone at the same time?
For instance, 11:05 am Eastern.
Central gets it at 10:05
Mountain - 9:05
Pacific - 8:05
Alaska, Hawaii, and "the colonies" per their respective TZ'z.

Isn't that how they would issue a real alert, all at once?
Why do something different for tests?
It seems that it really isn't a valid test then.

Dave
