  • Glad not to be a tech in Kentucky

    This was forwarded to the IT staff from our director. It came from an education technology mailing list.

    "Update on fiber outage:

    At 2:00 AM technicians went to area of fiber outage, identified that 5 miles of the fiber route had been shot with what looked like a shot gun. Shooting was still heard in the area, so a decision was made not to proceed until day light with repairs to the fiber."

    How the hell do you shoot 5 MILES of cable? How much spare time do you have on your hands to do that?!?
    A PSA, if I may, as well as another.

        Um, isn't cable buried, so you would need to dig up said cable before shooting it, I would have hoped someone would have noticed it...?

          It really depends on the area. It's not always buried.

              I hope there were also calls to the local constabulary on that shooting.

                Nothing surprises me in Kentucky anymore. (See my avatar--it's a horse drawn buggy in the bank drive through!)
