Yep. *It has to be registered, and if you move and take the line with
you, you have to re-register. *You also need a UPS or other form of

I can count on one finger the number of times my land line has been down in
the last 20 years.

I need both hands and both feet to count the number of times my internet
service (Comcast) has been down in the last six years.

The internet is fun and all, but I sure as hell wouldn't trust it when I
need it most.

When have your internet and cell phone both been down at the same
time? Things have changed since the days of phone-only phone lines.
