It's because of jerks that send "Happy New Year!" to every single contact in their address book. They can be recognized because it's the one time of year you get any kind of communication from them.

I had to wait for about 10 seconds before a phone call would register, mind you, it depends on how loaded your cell site was for calls, (depending how many channels that tower supports) and for text, well... there's like <10 texting servers last time I checked... that's hella lotta bandwidth w/ overhead from the protocol itself.
Either way, no big surprise, I was at the casino last night for countdown, and hoooooly shit was there a lotta people for one tower.
