In the case of the flooding of New Orleans nearly 4 years later, it was demonstrated that the person-to-person communications system was no better. While the flooding was a result of a natural disaster, it quickly became apparent that a city with portions below sea level could be a potential terrorist target. As disastrous as the hurricane induced damage was (1836 lives were lost), a surprise terrorist sabotage of the levee system could have produced an even greater loss of life and the collective anxiety produced would have been comparable to September 11.
In addition to war, terrorism, and natural disasters (such as floods, hurricanes, tornadoes, fires, volcanic eruptions, tsunamis, etc.), major disruption in the communications systems can result from industrial and transportation accidents (such as train derailments, chemical plant fires, nuclear power plant malfunctions, etc.), requiring immediate evacuation of large areas. On a smaller scale, a fire in a large office complex or government organization would produce a need for rapidly establishing communications between fellow workers and within departments for determining well being and establishing plans for resumption of business activities. In many cases, workers may only know others in the work environment and not know how to contact them at home. Increasingly, younger people have a cell phone which is not listed in a directory, so even with a full name it may be impossible to contact them outside of normal channels.
Historically, in the aftermath of a major disaster, organizations such as the American Red Cross and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) set up databases to connect victims with others. In the case of Hurricane Katrina the systems were completely overwhelmed. Thousands of victims from New Orleans were relocated to 28 states. Registration is typically on a one-on-one basis between the victim and a volunteer or staff member. No provisions were made for dealing with lost pets or expediting identification of the dead.
There is a problem of a unique, yet readily known, identification which this invention resolves for the great majority of the population. For example, a person may be known by a nickname, initials, or the spelling may be debatable. Victims may be illiterate, elderly, deaf, mute, or mentally challenged—any of which could make registration even more difficult.

 In the case of the implosion therapy of New Orleans nearly 4 years later, it was demonstrated that the person - to - person communications system was no better.

 In addition to war, terrorism, and natural disasters (such as floods, hurricanes, tornadoes, fires, volcanic eruptions, tsunamis, etc .), major break in the communications systems can leave from industrial and department of transportation accident (such as train derailments, chemical plant fire, nuclear power plant malfunctions, etc .), requiring immediate emptying of large areas. On a smaller scale, a fire in a large function complex or government organization would produce a motivation for rapidly establish communications between fellow workers and within departments for determining well being and establishing plan for resumption of business activities. In many cases, worker may only know others in the work environment and not know how to touch them at home. Increasingly, youthful people suffer a cell telephone which is not listed in a directory, thus even with a full name it may be impossible to touch them outside of normal channels.
