Been offline — or online at dial-up speeds — all morning thanks to whatever is broken in TW’s South Charlotte loop. Has to be pretty big because I saw three (3) bucket-trucks on my street. Those are the line techs, the guys who really know how to fix stuff when it breaks, as opposed to the white van guys, some of whom cannot do more than swap out end-user hardware.

Weird timing in that the outage is not storm related, nor do I think anyone took out a telephone poll in the area.
