Over 2 million people in the area…. and our Google Public PageRank Freedom Fighting Competitors have been affected by this once-though-to-be terrorism….

september 12th, utility workers “accidentally” cut some power lines… and routed them improperly sending the world into a spiralling chain of events that would change the face of the competition forever… well for a day anyways…

in our competition, craig and my sites had all gone down since dreamhost is located in Southern California… and after enjoying their sushi lunch to plunged into the depths of the shadow that crept over the city… apparently, they were forced to evacuate the building while their servers went over to backups/UPSs unforunately, yet not suprisingly, all of their upstream providers went down in the blackout… however, while everything was down (and while people were forcibly evacuated and waiting outside to get back in to tend to their equipment, the UPSs drained until they were dead and all the servers and whatnot crashed…

poor dreamhost…. (an excellent webhosting company by the way, that i’d recommend!) as craig pointed out… i would not want to have been in their shoes
