Use Skype if you want to report a crime, say cops

Oh good

I need to contact the police, so what do I do?

Emergency? Dial 999 or 112. Non emergency? Dial err 101 or 111 - can't remember which is which now and I install pbxs as part of my living 8)

OR

Reach for social media, but which app shall I use today? Will I remember or even care?

*sigh* I remember having the local copshop's phone number on my mobile until only a few years ago. I could call someone who actually knew where the town I live in actually is, let alone follow directions in it. I'm sure the 1{0|1}1 number is more efficient overall but it seems a major step backwards in customer service.

Oh well: #emerge -va net-im/skype
