The non-answer is actually an issue common to 911 centers. A large, visible event happens (like a giant fire), and they get flooded with calls, all reporting the same thing.

With automatic location detection of many callers today, I wonder if the 911 services can play an automatic recording for callers identified calling from a hyper-specific location. Then many people calling from the same location about the same incident will hear a recording that tells them "X incident has been reported and is being responded to, press any key or hold if you are calling about another incident".
