Re: FCC To Require 911 for VoIP

[Fergie (Paul Ferguson)]

That's a good suggestion. :-)

There's another article today on Advanced IP Pipleine that
openswith the statement:

"So far, new FCC chairman Kevin Martin isn't long on
solutions -- in fact, he's becoming part of the problem."

I prefer to remain nuetral on the topic. ;-)

Who exactly will I be talking to when I dial 911 from an internet cafe
in Puerto Vallarta through my Virgina VOIP account with a California
Billing address?
