This is exactly what Enhanced 911 was designed for. Doesn't the dispatcher, in addition to displaying the calling phone number, also get a location on the display? Those callers requiring anonymity CAN call a non-emergency standard 7D number in most communities. Anyway, we could be on the verge of another CallerID go-round, if we're not careful.
