    Whoever you asked very well may not be able to tell you where a given handset is. But technically, that answer is horseshit.

    If the handset is on, its approximative geo location (certainly which city / service area) can be determined, irrespective of GPS or anything else. Otherwise cellphone roaming would be impossible.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Home_Location_Register

    Read that.

    Then follow with:

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visitors_Location_Register

    Here's the pertinent quote:

    Whenever an MSC detects a new MS in its network, in addition to creating a new record in the VLR, it also updates the HLR of the mobile subscriber, apprising it of the new location of that MS.

    Every time your handset, while turned on, "registers" itself on a new cell site (MSC), the home MSC back here in fargo (or logically here in fargo, even if the physical equipment is somewhere else, this is the radio home endpoint) gets a message saying so.

    Otherwise calling someone who was roaming from a landline telephone would be impossible.

          Well, apparently this one, since she allegedly dumped her phone on the side of the road.

          I don't see anything to indicate the girl is stupid. Poor judgement, certainly.

          For that matter, the myspace/facebook photo looked attractive enough to me. Looks like a typical girl who grew up in the web-cam age.

          JN, the main problem you and your family face is helping this girl find the self esteem to not think that running off with a loser, all at age 16, is her best move.

          This is a serious comment, and not a judgement of your folks or a dig at you: Maybe she felt she wasn't getting enough positive attention because your whole family has been focused on you beating cancer?

          Nothing brings a family together like running away from home, as long as the kid comes back. Says so right in the bible.

                      Adding the word north now makes it a completly different name and town. Sioux city is a city in Iowa. north Sioux city is in south Dakota. He clearly stated Sioux city, not north Sioux city.

                      There for I'm still right.

                      All though.... touche sir

                              ...you said South Dakota...thats why there was an issue. Theres Sioux Falls, SD; North Sioux City, SD; South Sioux City, NE; and Sioux City, IA.

                                And they all should have their name changed because it disrespects the Sioux heritage...
