RE: Sabotage not backhoes: More cable cuts
Who Broadwing? Alan Ralsky maybe. I've had Broadwing's 3 /14s and some small misc netblocks in my Sendmail reject list for going on two years. I can't think of anything worthwhile I've missed. :) On Wed, 17 Sep 2003, Winslow, Michael wrote: > I'm sure they are important to someone > > -Original Message- > From: Justin Shore [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Wednesday, September 17, 2003 12:53 PM > To: Sean Donelan > Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: Sabotage not backhoes: More cable cuts > > > > On Sun, 14 Sep 2003, Sean Donelan wrote: > > > > > Someone climbed a 15-foot tower in Southern Arizona cutting a fiber optic > > cable used by Broadwing and Tucson Electric Power.
