    When i singed up for vonage 1 year ago, I had to click on a section saying i understand i have to set up for 911 calls. In the set up paperwork for the modem it explained how to set up for 911. I received no fewer than three emails saying i need to set up 911. I have used 911 with vonage and it worked flawlesly. It is a total, form,fit and functional replacement. Much better than 911 from a cell phone.

    If the public had a clue maybe more than 1 out of 5 americans that can (not counting some felons, age restrictions, not moving to a new place soon enough, etc) vote would. this would greatly reduce the risk of fraud based on shear data. But most of my fellow americans are sheep and if they do vote vote on ONE subject not the overall person(views). But what i just said is a terrorist i mean who would think a gov. for the peps, means for the peps.

    Bitter i guess
