From PRNewswire: Calls to Verizon’s cellular and
landline networks doubled from their peak normal volumes in the wake of the
apparent terrorist attacks in New York City and on the Pentagon, near
Washington, D.C.
In the aftermath, calls to Verizon’s networks reached twice the normal
daily volumes of 115 million calls in New York City and 35 millions calls in
the nation’s capital. On a normal business day Verizon handles 1.5 billion
calls.
