I got a friendly and prompt response back this morning.

“Our original ideal time to test the siren system was a noon the first Wednesday of the month as this was the day and time that the old DeKalb civil defense siren was tested. I asked for input from the Decatur School System and Agnes Scott College concerning their preference. I had hoped that the school system would use the test as part of their drill program. The input I received was that they would prefer that the test take place after school was let out. As we move forward in finalizing the procedures for the operation of the siren system, your concerns will be taken into consideration. ”

It also reinforces my wish that DM allows us all to remain anonymous.

Can anyone name the artists?
