Everyone knows about 9-1-1, but do you know about the eight other N-1-1 numbers that may be available in your area?

Usage is generally assigned as follows:

* 211: community services
* 311: government services
* 411: directory assistance
* 511: traffic information
* 611: telco line repair
* 711: TDD relay for the deaf
* 811: telco business office
* 911: emergency services

Only 9-1-1 is used throughout North America; the others vary by location.

The comment login system is acting strange. If you get an error message saying you aren't logged in when you are, just reload the comment page and try again. I'm trying to track this bug down, but it's not easy.
