QUICK.  You're trapped in a storm drain.  You have a cell phone and, by good fortune, cell signal.

What's the first thing you do?

Call emergency services for rescue, right?

Not if you're one of these two teenage pre-teen dim-bulbs.

I think I agree with what someone said elsenet, it's parenting fail for not teaching the girls to call emergency services. But I also remember that a big thing in school was to remind kids that if something happens like an accident in front of them to remember to call 911 to get help.

We put the question to Goose and Pirate. Their first reactions was to dial 911.
