9/11 attacks
911 (disambiguation)
Federal Communications Commission
National Emergency Number Association
United States

Chosen by the United States in the 1960s in place of the older British 999 number as a better way to avoid accidental calls from push-button telephones. It is officially pronounced "nine-one-one," not "nine-eleven," since "nine-eleven" refers to the 2001 attacks in New York and Washington. 9/11 is universally distinguished from 911 and usually refers to the September 11, 2001 attacks. Officially written as 9-1-1 in regulations and materials from the United States National Emergency Number Association and Federal Communications Commission, which is also advocated by some media style guides.

I don't know why they couldn't just keep it as it was! How hard is it to remember 911?
You mean 999...
I mean 999!
That's the American one!
Yeah!

2006 Feb. 3, Graham Linehan, The IT Crowd, Season 1, Episode 2

And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.

A remarkable feature of the accident was that the engine was 4-4-2 tank No. 13, the guard's brake was No. 13, and there were 13 wagons in the train.

1944 November and December, “Notes and News: Bufferstop Collisions in Northern Ireland”, in Railway Magazine, page 370:


[I]t is standard in American television and motion pictures to use 'fictiona' telephone numbers. [... But] a standard mention of a '555' number never generates the fictional truth that the number in question begins with '555'. It leaves the number in question fictionally indeterminate. … The X-Files mentions at least forty-seven '555' numbers, and no other kind … in different cities, states, and locales [...but] it's no part of [the] story that the first three digits of all these phone numbers coincide

that would itself be worthy of an 'X-File'. The '555' number, in a standard mention, is a convention device for communicating the (fictional) fact that someone reveals a phone number, without stipulating what that number is.

Fictional telephone number prefix widely used in North American television shows, films, and other media.
