Update: AT&T is denying the fact that their network for wireless in los angeles is down but I can tell you from experience it is down and geoff mordock is saying to use SMS instead but he seems stupid and in denial

Verizon is saying same thing. I can testify that our fios phone and Internet and television is working

Sprint’s saying that they had an 800% spike in call quantity in the thirty minutes after the quake. She is freely admitting to overload and is also recommending text messages also some idiots are calling 911 to get info
