Being that Miami is my home town. I found it interesting today that in areas affected by the black out services like verizon EVDO lost their backbone connections. The towers were up with signal but no one could get to the IP gateway. Driving a few miles to a lit area provided connectivity. This is a concern for those of us with hurricane experience in the area.

In fact, I think this morning's outages down in Florida should shed some light on some serious issue in communications reliabilities... even CNN couldn't keep a good signal due to power issues. :-) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGP Desktop 9.6.3 (Build 3017) wj8DBQFHxP6Yq1pz9mNUZTMRAvykAJ0av1YZIdXOT4vK/I7Py+yXWjZOGgCg/iiB angWtRCPTVvLVjP8UG5Ul2w= =zA7G -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- "Fergie", a.k.a.
