Social media does make the world smaller and all of a sudden makes 6 degrees of separation more of a reality for me. Tonight I posted two tweets sharing my frustration of not being able to get a PIO to return my calls. My first Tweets on a possible lightning strike victim came out about 5:30p.m.  Almost four hours later I had not had my calls returned.  But I had seen in an early newscast on another station that they had the details from the PIO. Within minutes of my frustration Tweets, the PIO called me.

I wonder if he called me after seeing my Tweets himself or if someone else seeing my Tweets had alerted him. I could be completely off base and it's pure coincidence that he called so soon after the Tweets. I should ask him...


Tweets are in reverse order... bottom is the first frustration Tweet the top is the final Tweet
