So, my wife and I were out late in Chapel Hill the other night and
had, uh, a lot of alcohol and thought it wise not to drive home.  I
tried calling the two cab companies I had stored in my cel and got
nothing but a busy signal from one and no answer from the other for
like ten or fifteen minutes.  Fortunately a friend (who had not had a
lot of alcohol) offered us a ride so we made it home OK.

Anyway, my question is this: having not tried to take a late-night cab
home in Chapel Hill since we moved there about a year and a half ago,
and having now had this experience, should I expect that I won't be
able to get in touch with one and plan accordingly?   CAC
