Guest guest Posted April 2, 2007 Report Share Posted April 2, 2007 The suggestion has come from the UK, it is currently being taught to emergency responders and police. How much has been disseminated, I am not sure, but it can't hurt. Reader's Digest has had a couple of articles on the use of this life saafing idea. Also, it took a few years for 911 to get accepted.
