Interesting idea, and a sign of the times. It took 6 weeks before I had
access to Blinky's computer so that I could look through and notify
anyone I hadn't heard of. It took almost a week to get in touch with
his daughter, because the coroner had sealed the apartment, and I didn't
have any of her info, other than the city that she lived near.

I think I'll start compiling my lists for a thumb drive in case
something happens to me, and I copy it and send it to my sisters.
