Random thoughts, occasional rants, illuminating commentary, and an odd story now and then from the world of 9-1-1 dispatching. All this and more from a gay liberal atheist living in California’s Bible belt. I recently married, so MAGA beware! I’m your worst nightmare! Some names have been omitted to protect the innocent, but the guilty will be hung out to dry!

The FCC is working on plans to allow texting, picture, and video communications with 9-1-1 centers. It will require a revamping of the system from circuit-switched to IP based technology. That, of course, isn’t going to be cheap. We’ll see if Congress supplies the funding for such a rebuilding of the system.
This should be fun. If it ever happens here, I’ll keep you updated.
