False alarm, we're all ok over here!
    8 years ago
            For anyone who saw the accidental missile alert for HI, it was exactly that. We're all ok, theres no thread inbound. Someone pushed the wrong button, probably while testing the system and sent out the "this is not a drill" rather than "this is a drill" I feel rather bad for whomver this person is as they are likely getting the ass chewing of their life. 
I will say, they need to be a little better about sending out the "whoops, my bad" alert afterwards cause word about it being a false alarm is spreading way slower than it should be. This event stopped traffic on highways and had jobs evacuated.

                    The blunder will go down in the history books for sure. there was a lot of panic.

                    I imagine HI does not take those things lightly by any stretch of the imagination.

                    Yeah, that seems bad. Glad you weren't hurt in any of the panic.
