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.)

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