On that note, I'd be very interested in hearing stories of actual incidents that are the cause of why cardboard boxes are banned in many facilities, due to loose particulate matter getting into the air and setting off very sensitive fire detection systems. Or maybe it's more mundane and 99% of the reason is people unpack stuff and don't always clean up properly after themselves. On Wed, Feb 17, 2021, 6:21 PM Owen DeLong <owen () delong com> wrote:
Stolen isn’t nearly as exciting as what happens when your (used) 6509 arrives and gets installed and operational before anyone realizes that the conductive packing peanuts that it was packed in have managed to work their way into various midplane connectors. Several hours later someone notices that the box is quite literally smoldering in the colo and the resulting combination of panic, fire drill, and management antics that ensue.

Which examples would make up your top three? To get things started, I'd suggest the AS 7007 event is perhaps the most notorious and likely to top many lists including mine. So if that is one for you I'm asking for just two more. I'm particularly interested in this as the first step in developing a future NANOG session. I'd be particularly interested in any issues that also identify key individuals that might still be around and interested in participating in a retrospective. I already have someone that is willing to talk about AS 7007, which shouldn't be hard to guess who. Thanks in advance for your suggestions, John
