[Asterisk-biz] E911 And Routing

[Matt]

Yes,
I'm in the U.S... I'm aware of this!   My point was that it just rang
and rang and rang and never went to voicemail.. so that got me
curious.. what if I choose tech support?   Went to a voicemail box!

My points is not that it's a holiday.. yes it is... my point is that
emergency services still need to run!  And 911 is certainly a mission
critical item.   Even though it's new years, the cube droids should
still be there answering calls!

I was also under the impression that dash-911 had been operational
already!  Guess I was wrong.

9-1-1
*ring* *ring*
Thank-You for calling 911 emergency services.  Due to the new year
holiday our offices are currently closed.   Please try your call again
tomorrow, and a representative will be happy to assist you, or if this
IS an emergency, please hang up and call 9-1-1.  Thank-You!
