Something like five six years ago when when the U.S.'s North East
lost power for three days I was still able to turn in homework via my
laptop, a UPS system, modem, and the good ole landline. Doing homework
and reading assignments by candlelight! Sounds like a good story to
tell the spoiled grand kids.
And yet the various phone company sales reps think I'm paranoid when I
say I want to stay with my regular (copper) land line and not go to VoIP
or cell phone only. I won't say I'm feeling smug, since the situation is
serious for so many people, but I am feeling validated in my decision.
