   [telecom] Does anyone know where to find

   From: dannyb@panix.com   
      
   Where [are] the regulations mandating cellphones (whenever technologically   
   capable) be allowed to make "911" calls, whether or not the cell phone   
   is registered, has an account with the local cellco or, for that   
   matter, even has a SIM in the phone?   
      
   The reason I'm asking is, well, first, I can't find the actual text,   
   and second, I tried making calls to "988" (the suicide prevention   
   number) without SIMs, etc. to test it out and they were blocked, so   
   I'd like to double check the language before following up.   
      
   Thanks to everyone who's about to point out this is right there in   
   front of my eyes - and making me slap my forehead.
