I know, I don't mind the dialogue but IMHO besides trying to define
which is the best way to seal a manhole, I'd rather see a more
constructive discussion from an operational perspective.

I really doubt that the big guys who own the fibers will make a rational
decision about how to build their networks reading NANOG when the
underlaying problem is not just technical or operational.

For example, based on the experience with this outage, what's was
out, how many users were affected, how the network operator's
community handled the issue, what information was available,
what kind of communications we used, what we did wrong, what
we did right.

BTW, now I know where to get a good padlock for my shack :-)

Cheers
