Just making a clarification. So you do say that cellular telephones
played a major role in the 9/11 attacks and in the summer power
outages?


It is a documented fact that the cell phones were all but useless to handle
the emergency communication needs during 9/11. Too many of the towers had
been on top of the World Trade Center buildings. Those calls that did get
through took over 30 minutes to do so, which is a real problem in handling
emergency communications.

In the power outage of August 2003, I personally experienced the erratic
availability of cell phones.
