    Seems like every major cell network is down. I thought it was just mine, AT&T, but according to this it's all of them.

    According to the outage map now Google and Comcast are having problems. This is how the zombie apocalypse starts.

    It's been nice knowing all of you.

    I ain't scared. My cell phone is pretty big, but I wouldn't call it "massive."

    I just called my home phone from my cell. Works fine. T-Mobile.

    It could just be that the wifi/voip calling on iPhones works anyway.

    The only one of us carrying around a massive cell phone is MarAzul.

    My cell works fine.

    It's like Mrs. HCP. Full coverage, always working. It's everywhere. Can you hear me now?
