We
solved the phone bill taxes and fees with Vonage for a landline and
TracFones for cell usage. May even drop the landline as we only use
about $10 month apiece for TracFone and Vonage runs $17 or so a month.

You do realize that with a phone system like that, during any kind of
disaster situation you will be cut off with no communication, right? The
Vonage is iffy. The cell phone is guaranteed useless.


When we're on the road, cell will have to do. At home, I can walk the
one block to the fire station or two blocks to the hospital or three
blocks to the police dept. And then the emergency care center is behind
my house.

Besides, there aren't many floods or earthquakes or hurricanes or
whatever here in the AZ desert, just heat and dust.
