[HCARC] Outage

this afternoon and evening has been very interesting in communications since this afternoon my cell phone hasn't been working properly every time I was going to make a local call it was telling me that I was roaming. when I got home from working at church try to use my landline and the landline was not working, turned on my television and a television wasn't working, I call Time Warner and the voicemail said that there was trouble on the line, I called Sprint and I told me a fiber optic cable was cut. the point I'm making now can you imagine if this was a disaster from a storm all the communications would be knockdown, only amateur radio would be the most reliable source of communication. it is really interesting how much we rely on technology until it breaks.
