************************** Moderator's Note *************************
*
- I publish posts about 911 outages for two reasons:
*
- 1. I used to be in charge of the E911 network in New England, and I
- still feel a responsibility to publicize failures.
*
- 2. There are serious weaknesses in the E911 system's security, and I
- have not seen or heard of any effort to reduce or eliminate them.
