Who said "terrorism"?  Come on, people.  Let's not turn NANOG-L into an
RNC sounding board.

I seem to recall a *really big* power outage a few years back.  And does
the New England area ever have major snowstorms?  Each region has plenty
of inherent hazards, both natural and not.

Let's not limit our concerns to "the boogeyman is out to get us",
particularly when discussing "balance".
