[And does anyone have any basis on which to make these guesses?] Let's extrapolate from an event that I know of, and remember. In 1976, a particularly dangerous strain of flu, Victoria, was the influenza du jour. As in most strains, there were two versions: Victoria-B, where your life sucked for a few days, and then you got on with it, and Victoria-A, which was life threatening, and BTW, yet another bird flu entry. I'm not going to post a bunch of links, but if you want entertainment (or validation) influenza victoria 1976 in Google will give you hours of interesting data. I had the A strain, and was gravely ill. My lungs are scarred as though I had had tuberculosis, and I'm grateful that was the only damage. In just the area I lived in, there were multiple deaths reported. The outbreaks were localized, but quite dramatic in those geographical areas where it took off. I don't mean to add to the hysteria, but I also would prefer that you not discount it. Much will depend on your local area, on whether people are tightly clustered (NYC, LA), or thinly populated (Wyoming, North Dakota). -- You can't have in a democracy various groups with arms - you have to have the state with a monopoly on power, Condoleeza Rice, the US secretary of state, said at the end of her two-day visit to Baghdad yesterday. ...No Comment

E.S., I apologise if I sounded like I wished to discount any danger. There is a possibility of danger. There often is. I may just be tired of people making noises as if this particular danger were guaranteed. Although it is guaranteed that SOME disaster will befall us, at SOME time, and so we should in general prepare for A disaster, there is no guarantee that this is that one (nor that it isn't!). I also have enough trouble fully comprehending the entire theory of statistics that I feel it necessary to question when a study based on the 50 worst cases is used to extrapolate to the entire population. And I am a mathematician by nature and training. Just, it would seem, not THAT kind of a mathematician. ;-) -- Joe Yao --- This message is not an official statement of OSIS Center policies.

A proposal - was Re: Is your ISP Influenza-ready?
How about this? I will not post anything to NANOG that discounts the hysteria. Yall will take the bird flu discussion (and the discussion of the meaning, origin and proper usage of pessimal for crissake) elsewhere. Deal?

By five years after, most companies who could be affected by such an outage may have relocated a continuing-operations set of machines to one or more colo data centers. I don't know why the data centers would not have expanded to meet the influx, though. Five years after 9/11 you would think that people would have located business continuity ops much further away (assuming the businesses are based in NYC) than NJ. I'm sure that regulations require them to be x miles or in another state. But all things should considered... even the capability for major catastrophic incident(s) to affect primary and (nearby) secondary sites. I think the reasons are probably due to companies/governments thinking (hoping?) that in the event of a catastrophic event the business would be able to get ppl from site A to site B. To me it is ridiculous to assume that anyone would be left at site A, or even in the vicinity of site A. And if they are still around site A after a catastrophic event, would they behave normally and could they be counted on (families, fears, trauma, etc)? I'm an employee, but in desperate times my family comes first (that is a no brainer decision that every CIO should think about). Put your major data/ops centers on different continents, or at least on different coasts. Not big enough to do that? Outsource to someone who is. Don't want to spend the money? Partner with a non-competing similar business that is strategically located away from yours. Don't do the minimum to insure your business survival, do the maximum. Disclaimer: I work for someone who provides outsourcing services including the area of business continuity. -Jim P.
