Yep.. And when you are dying of a heart attack in your house, and every
second counts, how are you going to feel when the 911 operator says..
"P...e.a...s...c....a...y......s....a..d..a?" Or better yet, when you get
a fast-busy because your Cable Modem is down?
VoIP is great. VoPI (Voice over Public Internet) is great when it works,
but I wouldn't bet my life or my business on it.
