9-1-1 service is and has been pretty shoddy at best with those services. Most of my jobs these days are 9-1-1 centers (PSAPs) and I often ask about that. I never hear or see anything positive about it, but have tried to deal with parsing the ALI information from the few VOIP providers do provide it just to try to make it work. Its generally a disaster. A person would generally do better with a Phase 2 complient cell phone when dialing 9-1-1 over the VOIP services being offered, because with a Phase 2 complient cell phone, at least one can be tracked within a couple of city blocks of one's actual location. With many of the VOIP services, they don't even route 9-1-1 calls through the 9-1-1 database, they just route those calls against main/general numbers for police departments, which may not even have Caller ID, and certainly don't have ALI information. And when that happens, those folks have no CAD or mapping access, then have to transfer those calls into non-emergency lines into PSAPs where the dispatchers have to ask for everything manually, all taking precious time when someone is choking, on fire, has a gun in their face, etc. How in the world those guys get away with not being complient while all other Telcos have to be complient is beyond me.

This would make the whole engine rebuild job much easier-and much less expensive! I soon found however, that the #4 conrod bearing had disintegrated, taking with it chunks of the crankshaft journal.
