Turns out, I had my phone in Airplane! mode.

About 1/3 of the time when I ask Siri to call my wife Rita (not real name), I get “I’m sorry, but there are no Rita’s in your contacts”. There are at least three. How can it not search local contacts correctly?

Haha. My roomie and I are moving soon, and the other week we checked out the apartment we eventually settled for. On the way home his father sent a text that he has time to talk this weekend, and so my roomie wanted to use Siri to respond. So he was all "Send a text to Friedrich" (also not real name), and it was like "I couldn't find a Fred in your contacts. To who?" - "Friedrich!" eventually he spelled it out and it was all "Okay, calling Friedrich."
