[nfb-talk] Fwd: business with NBP

[Powers, Terry (NIH/OD/DEAS) [E]]

Not always!  My phone is connected to my cable and network.  My phone and cable all went out, but I still had my cell phone.

Mike,
Yep. We might lose cell phone service and electricity in a storm. But very often, we still have our land line.
Cell phone coverage is dependent on a good cell tower nearby for signal and more variables. The good old fashioned land line can be a life saver. I will certainly purchase phone service when getting my own place.

And landlines often function when cell service, cable and Internet phone services don't.
