1. 911 is the emergency number in many, but not all, American lands. It
   is not universal, and where it is supported, it refers callers to the
   local police/fire/etc. emergency services rather than a national
   network.

2. There was a much more likely reason for 9/11: anniversary of the Camp
   David accords.
