OnTheBorderLine.net Bloggers Call 9-1-1
Dr. Junkyarddog and his wife, Dr. Luke, were out walking and Dr. Luke suddenly clutched her heart (they actually do have a heart) and fell to the sidewalk. Dr. Junkyarddog unlaced his shoe phone (they don't all wear slip-ons -- some can actually tie their shoes) and called 9-1-1.
The Operator said "Where are you?"
Dr. Junkyarddog said, "We were walking and Dr. Luke is on the sidewalk on Eucalyptus Street."
The operator said, "How do you spell that?" and the phone seemed to go dead. The operator kept shouting for Dr. Junkyarddog. She could hear him panting (afterall, he is a junk yard dog).
Then he came back on and said, "I dragged Dr. Luke over to Oak St, that's O-A-K."
...so that's why they all call themselves "Dr." at www.ontheborderline.net!

JPN, Your premise is all wrong. The Dr.s
would never call 911 because it is too closely related to the giverment. In their world they would never want their money going to taxes to help just anybody. In there world,you'd pay $12.99/month the subscribe to OnStellar 911 and be connected to an operator in India because the market would dictate that OnStellar could derive the greatest profit from the lowest labor costs that way. Now the laws of supply and demand would still drive labor costs up in this country because those unable to afford the OnStellar supscription would die and be eliminated from the labor pool making employees who can still breath all the more valuable in the marketplace and of course in turn unemployable. Don't you just love the Laissez Faire economics.
That operator in India would then call an EMT from India. Just think of the response time!
Oh yea, I can hear the operator now: What is your pin number? What city? What county? What state? What is the current version of software on you pacemaker? Do you know when it was last updated? Sorry, we don't support the brand. You need to call the Mircosoft helpdesk. The number their 1-800-We-TAKE-ALL.
