not if we're talking a different notification for a realistic regional emergency, like forest fires or flooding that requires evacuation. there is a discussion to be had there.
We're just over 5 months into the year and I believe I've had two alerts come through my phone. only one of which woke me up. it's not enough of an issue for me to worry too much about changing it.
and as for Kim Mitchell, I like Lager & Ale era Kim Mitchell, or Max Webster.

I was in hawaii when the fake ICBM warning came in. The alarm woke me up. I looked outside to my beautiful view of the ocean and went back to bed. If North Korea was dumb enough to ask the USA to turn the northern part of that peninsula into a glass parking lot, then i'd rather get vaporized in bed instead of in a concrete cellar
