There's been a communication glitch or cable cut somewhere, a massive one

And we haven't been told by the media.
I cannot get several sites to come up this morning, and I have this feeling of being cut off from half of the world.
Anyone else getting this?

2. THere are problems in Georgia right now

One of my company's offices has been experiencing phone problems all day. I wonder if the tornado in Atlanta had anything to do with it.

3. I am sure that this is the explanation. n/t

8. There are a lot of Internet server centers

in downtown Atlanta.
I know of three that were in the direct path of the tornado.
Also a LOT of phone and power lines down all over the downtown area.
It would not surprise me if this is what is causing problems.

4. The Internet is very slow and some sites still won't come up

It must be all the storms everywhere plus the Atlanta problems. Atlanta was seriously damaged by tornadoes.
And all this time I thought it might be an evil conspiracy, lol.

5. the internet connection went down

this morning here in LA for Time Warner Cable...
I was looking for their number for the longest time, when it came back on.

6. yahoo mail was up & down all day yesterday

7. I guess we will never know the cause.

Yet I find it interesting that so much of our world, which centers around the Internet, is cloaked in secrecy. Hmmmm.
