well.. theres lots of ducting going down streets but not that many folks know which of them are the major cable routes, i think keeping specific detail discrete is reasonable in a fire near where i am a couple years ago: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2002/10/23/arson_suspected_in_manchester_cable/ it seemed a bit of a coincidence that both the active and protect paths of a major sdh route got hit in this attack and it took out a lot of long distance circuits Steve
