I finished the book finally.

Someone has been using my old cellphone to call 911 in the wee hours in the morning. How do I know this? 2 calls from the Homer dispatch checking on me. One at 12:55 on Thursday morning, one at 1:50 this morning. I am completely freaking out.

1. What can you see when you look directly behind you from where you are sitting now?

2. When was the last time you recieved/sent flowers?

3. Wanna buy a ticket or just donate $10 to help an ATY kid win prizes?

That's one of the things that worries me the most.

...I...must be missing something, then; are you trying to get that specific phone back? Are you afraid that your stored info is still on it?

Don't worry about it. Most programes that give phones to possable domestic violance victoms have the phones regesterd to the orginization. Phone companies love the publicity, they happily give out crippled accounts that work for 911, but don't flag warnings elsewere.

If the phone had been given to a shelter (which, considering the asshole STOLE the phone, I highly doubt it) most places know enough to de-program the phone before allowing someone to use it. I did confirm that if a stolen phone is used, the Caller ID that gets transmitted is what is programmed in the phone, regardless if it is an active number or not. The problem with that (and it is an industrywide issue) is if 911 calls back, they get the person whose number it really belongs to, not the person with the stolen phone. The only solution if it continues to be a problem: do a number change. I know it's not the option you wanted to hear, but it's the way it is. And if that happens, most carriers will do the number change at no cost.
