Is there any info on who says nine-one-one and who says nine-eleven?
Regional? Socioeconomic? EMT folks vs. the rest of us?
I'm thinking it's just personal preference, but I heard a Denver-based
reporter say "nine-eleven tapes" on NPR this morning and it struck me.
In the UK, do folks say "nine-nine-nine" or something else?
