   ### - re the above: have just discovered a leaked copy of a 'nuclear'   
   related txt-alert people can maybe expect via this systerm should the   
   worst ever happen, the nationwide test planned for 23rd april next, will   
   aim to auto-alert up to 90% of all uk mobiles and be accompanied by a   
   10-second long wailing siren...   
      
   for the upcoming test, only a simple explanatory test-message will be   
   included   
      
   any later 'nuclear' alert txt messages, however, will likely read as   
   follows:   
      
   Danger To Life Alert!   
      
   There is danger of an immanent nuclear attack!   
      
   Upon this First Warning:   
   1. Stay Clear of all Windows.   
   2. Keep Hands Free of Glass, Bottles, Cigarettes, Etc.   
   3. Stand Away From Tables and Furniture.   
   4. Loosen Necktie, Unbutton Coat And Any Other Restrictive Clothing.   
   5. Remove Glasses, Empty Pockets of all Sharp Objects such as Pens,   
   Pencils, Etc.   
   6. Immediately Upon Seeing the Brilliant Flash of a Nuclear Explosion,   
   Bend Over and Place Your Head Firmly Between Your Legs.   
   7. Then Kiss Your Arse Goodbye.
