phone use after a disaster

I just wanted to remind everyone not to use the phone after a major disaster unless you actually need help. We had a small, but still sizable earthquake in the San Jose, CA area last night. Apparently, everyone got on their cell phones afterwards and the extra load caused some service problems. If it had been something bigger, people may have actually needed to call for help. However, if the system was overloaded, they wouldn't have been able to. I know you want to make sure everyone is alright, but please remember that others may need to use the phone to get help.

I, for one, will probably turn my phone off during such an event.
