A shrill noise in the night invokes an immediate sense of danger. A horn calling out across a valley will rally the cavalry to prepare for war. A clanging bell at the town gate will rouse the inhabitants to a common threat. And a wailing siren of an ambulance will awaken everybody in a six block radius for absolutely nothing. The modern civilization does not require assembling every able bodied villager to face emergencies. In our unending wisdom, we have built specialized task forces to deal with impending disasters, so why do we still bang the drums of war for every false alarm? Invading armies are not trumpeting their arrival, we’re all being constantly alerted to every sprained ankle and speeding ticket. Gather your pitchforks with Mat and Veronique as we mob the square with our fellow countrymen to oblige the call of Sirens!
