911.......

Maybe somebody can fill me in here...

My thoughts were that disconnecting your landline left you with just enough functionality to call your phone company itself and 911.

Also, if your SOOOO worried about 911, keep a cell phone plugged in someplace so that power/internet outages are not a problem. (The phone won't even need a carrier)

I can definately agree that its good to know that with a landline, a dispatcher sees your address before they know your name, but there are alternatives to having copper pairs running to your house. I myself have been SBC free since about a week after Comcast rolled out HSI in my area.

If I wasn't so careless, I would have my voip, modem, router, and a cordless phone all jacked into a ups.
