Do you think you're the only person who might have an emergency? What if someone you love has an emergency and needs to reach YOU?
THANK YOU! I have to agree. People who never turn their cell phones on may as well throw them away. I have 2 sisters who do this and it infuriates me no end. They have no problem calling MY cell phone, just to chat, but they never have their phones on, and when there is an emergency it is impossible to get hold of them. I just don't understand why they do this. They have not publicized their numbers, so it's not like just anyone would call them just to chat, but they are not available in emergencies and there have been many over the years.

Don't you think a 67 yr old should carry a cell phone when going out for a 5-mile run? Sheesh!
