Re: Ha.

to bad he didn't have DSL and VOIP. Oh, never mind, his broadband would have been down to. Cable cuts happen, but other than that, my landline rarely goes down.

My neighbor last week had a problem with his landline when the day-laborers installed an irregation system on a new property across the street and no one in planning bothered to have the ground marked for utilities.

That is a fiber they cut. Hope the landscaping company's insure covers the telco repair bill and justifies the skipping of traditional processes. Still, that landline solution did nothing for my neighbor. He was out three business days.

I don't wonder why you stick with landline. In fact, I don't know you.
Yeah too bad my landline isn't dependent on the power at home. Oh and they have generators down at the CO. VOIP is just something that I wouldn't rely on entirely.

I have a cell phone but I still keep the landline, just in case.
