George,
Since you changed the subject...
Calling 911 and being put on hold (or hearing the phone ring for 5
minutes) is more the norm, at least here in California. There are only a
limited number of operators who answer 911 calls. With cell phones and
especially on the freeway, often many people call in to report the same
incident leaving many callers on hold until the operators can work their
way through the queue.
What's the solution to this situation?
SELF-RELIANCE!!! UUGGG-OOOFF (I exclaimed, beating my fists against my
chest like a big male gorilla)
BTW, because there are always at least 3 sides to any story, here's more

The second entry on that page is very interesting.
While this entry is a bit out of date, he makes a very interesting
point... That the feds are trying to figure out how to mandate the
costs of whatever they want on industry... Very much akin to
requiring every home to be built with peepholes, and platforms at our
windows, so they look in on us without difficulty. Maybe even
requiring remote control drapes?
Yeah, yeah, I know, you have to be a political radical to NOT want
that built into all our homes... but, he has a point.
