Re: speaking of slightly OT but perhaps still operational content

Perhaps I'm wrong, but I thought its fairly typical for large events 
such as these (with lots of communications assets being deployed, not 
unlike a Superbowl, etc) for Cell companies to roll in COWs 
(Cell-on-wheels) type deployments to support additional capacity.

Am I living in a fantasy land?
