Dear Franklin Police Department,

Yes, I voluntarily signed up for your automated text alerts during the flood of 2010.  Yes, I appreciate the texted Amber Alerts, warnings of flash floods and occassional requests to see if I can help identify a thief who used a stolen card at an ATM.  

I do not appreciate texts sent at 3:30 am to advise me of overturned tractor trailers on the interstate.  Maybe I'm a little touchy since I have had only one full night of sleep since March 14th, but you seriously need to reevaluate what constitutes a necessary alert.  SERIOUSLY.
