We lost connectivity (WAN/Internet/POTS) to our Long Beach site at
around 2:27 AM PDT today.  Several news agencies are reporting it on the
web (hooray news.google.com), citing "mechanical glitches" or bad
weather.  I've also heard rumors of a power outage, though I find those
highly suspect.  Choose your villan, I guess.
