    I took a picture of my auto insurance cards. No matter what may happen or where, they will be there with me.

    This seems kind of insulting, because it’s saying pluggers need paper notes because they don’t know how to add a number to a contacts list.

    My post-it on the phone holds the PIN numbers to the phone and bank cards. Better safe…

    I used to keep a paper list of all the important phone numbers I needed. Now that everybody has died except my brother, I can remember the one number.

    Bad thing is that one number is his phone number and the other is his wife’s ! ! !

    There’s a commercial out there about that. Don’t remeber who the commercial was for, just that the lady had a pile of Post-it-notes on her cell phone. Effective commercial for the wrong reason.

    It is important to have some form of ID and contact information that isn’t locked up in a password-protected electronic device when you travel. The name and phone number of a friend or close relative would do.

    A few years ago, my adult son was on a business trip and involved in a serious car accident [approaching SUV driver was leaning over, trying to plug in his tablet, steered into son’s lane and drove over his car]. We only found out about it when his office called a couple of days later to see how he was doing. All the responders and hospital had was his business card — everything else was locked in his phone and computer; and, since he was an adult and didn’t need a blood transfusion, they didn’t need to locate his family.

    He was very lucky, but he did have severe injuries and it was a full year before he could return to his job and his normal life.

    They should use a paperclip and clip it to their shirts so they’ll have the numbers in case of an emergency.

    While 555-1212 is a “safe” number (it’s 411 – more accurately, how you dial 411 from a different area code), 555-2121 can be a working number, usually to forward to another number. For decades, only 555-0100 through 555-0199 numbers are left unused. About 20 years ago, the producers of “Futurama” got fined for using a 555 number that was not a 555-01xx number.
