FairPoint and New England 911 callers - three for three!

That's right, FairPoint problems were behind 911 call failures in Maine in April, May, and June and in New Hampshire in late June. (See "We Told You So," by Jeff Inglis, July 4.) Now Vermont has been struck, too, according to an Associated Press report, beautifully headlined, "Vt. 911 calls go to 'black hole.'"

 How long will it be before no phone calls go through at all?
