Do these URI's refer to data stored inhouse in a linked file, or data
on the Web?
Yesterday, for the 3rd time in recent weeks, a vehicle hitting power
poles resulted in loss of power to our Internet provider (for five
hours this time). (The earlier two were overturned logging trucks,
which took some time to clear.)
My generator kicks in, so I can work inhouse, but can not access
outside resources or communicate with you folks. Serious withdrawal
symptions here ::-{)}.
Any OPAC dependent on the Web would not have been able to function
during the outage.
While 2012 may not be reality :-{)}, you must admit earthquakes are
becoming more common; we are overdue for a major earthquake here on
Vancouver Island. (SLC is decentralized and stores data offsite.) We
should all take seriously operating during disasters, small and great.
