If you're going to accuse me of being an author, could you at least choose a good author? (Now's your chance to suck up to Mark and SlagA.)

I think.
Ahh! I never knew that.
Quote: Aaron @ March 16 2010, 6:58 PM GMTAhh! I never knew that.
411? It took me a while to understand the 999 thing on UK shows/films. (We dial 911 here.)
You choose all the wrong numbers.
Or 2 thirds of the wrong numbers, anyway.

In the days of rotary dials American fingers traveled approximately 12 fewer inches each time one of those numbers was called. Valuable seconds were saved in emergency situations. Or something.
And the insurance companies were very thankful for it.

I seem to remember seeing that 999 was chosen as the UK emergency number because it was the least likely to be mis-dialled. Your finger was right against the dial stop in the 9 position.
Nowadays we have TWO numbers, 999 and the one the eurocrats want us to use, which I can never remember.
112?
