"If you're paying for a landline, your bill may very well skyrocket
soon. There is a solution?it's replacing landlines and much more
reliable than cell phone

Snip

It?s called VoIP and it?s changing the way we use phone services in
our own homes."

VoIP IS CRAP ... and had been around for years and who would trust the
internet in an emergency ...........


Voip is in fact ,marvellous.

That why you have a mobile...


In one of my more spectacular blond moments, I rigged my UPS up to *send

not on the UPS ...



Have you had another blonde moment & setup your newsreader to post
