Even more interesting, what if you have a heart attack and a
helpful local picks up your phone and dials 060? Normally,
in Puerto Vallarta this is the emergency number. Or perhaps
the helpful person is a tourist who knows that the worldwide
standard for cellular emergency numbers is to dial 112. 
What will happen then with your mobile SIP phone?

P.S. in England, you would dial 999. In Australia you 
would dial 000. And in Russia you would dial 01 for the
fire service, 02 for police or 03 for ambulance.
