Actually my wife/friend/lover/etc  being simi-telcom literate would have
called my Voice*Mail number, left a long and drawn out explaination (you
know, the kind only a wife can) of what the problem was, where she
was, how pissed she was ...etc.  Them punched in the emergency code
forcing it to ring my pager, call the cell phone, call the house line
line etc.
