Stupid phone

So you flat-out don't care about the multiple calls you've made to 911? You could care less about the wasted time and resources? Is that what you are saying?

Well . . . considering that I now put my phone in standby mode, rather than locking the keys, I guess my answer to your question should be obvious. And yeah, standby sucks, but is a helluva lot better than using a sleeve or a holster, I think your characterization is a little unfair.

Rationalization is funny like that, isn't it? :applaud:
Did he really just say rarely affects me?
Basically it took the 911 dispatcher noticing that your number is tied to 9 false calls and send a unit to your family for you to care about your waste of resources. You do realize you're flagged as a possible problem now, right, seeing as how someone has been calling 911 from your phone and you keep telling them it's nothing?
Plus I bet they call you a toolbag down at the station. A really big sweaty one.

pending legislation making careless 911 calls a civil offense carrying a three digit fine. Plus we taunt you. A lot.

That's the spirit! Take care of the problem, one careless Blackberry user at a time. We'll get those 911 resources back yet! :cheers:

Either that or a remote self destruct code known to the 911 operator. "oh, this is a false call? Sir, please put the phone down on the ground. Now back off 5 steps. Thank you." <boom>
"911, what's your emergency? Blew his leg off? Wait, the process is ten steps?!"
