Sean/list, I was watching the news this morning re: This issue. A Pacbell spokesman was talking to a reporter and here is what he had to say ( My memory is a bit foggy) " Pac bell is also the victim here. We did not cause this. It was a private contractor that caused this ACCIDENT" At the point he said accident it sounded like he was getting ready to start yelling at the reporter. I just thought you all might find this funny.. Please no flames! PS: I am going to Vancouver BC on Thursday for a week. Anyone know anything fun to do in the area? Sean Donelan allegedly stated on 3/13/00 19:28: > >I'm sure this has absolutely nothing to do with me moving to >the San Jose area :-) > >On friday a contractor cut four major Pacific Bell cables.

Two cables, ok you didn't realize the first >strange noise was a cable. Three cables, accidents come in threes.
