Monday and maybe phone service again. My main line went out at 12:08 AM Friday night and the repair service woman was about as nasty as they come. When I called her and asked if she would put it on the medical emergency list instead of the wait a week list, she told me that if I didn't make it through the weekend I wouldn't need a phone anyway. I told her it was their trouble and was back towards the ESS machine. She then asked me what that was and I told her it is the #5 computer that you should be testing my line through. She finally tested it and it has a dead ground on the line. Then she asked my how I knew about that and I told her my background with AT&T and the labs. She did get a little nicer after that and said she would try to get it fixed first thing this morning. But this whole weekend I worried abut what to do if I had to call a doctor with no phone. NO, I don't have a cell phone and have never had one. In this area they don't work to well and any time I would need one you can bet I would not be able to get a signal.
