So jealous of those of you who still have the possibility of true wired-in phone service! Our neighborhood was switched over to FIOS before we moved here. There is a battery back-up that is supposed to permit phone service for “up to 8 hours” in case of a power outage that takes down everything else, but I’ve never had an opportunity to test it out.
