Obviously, though, not a big issue in Long Beach...it has only a minor effect in the Long Beach area. Monday evening's storm was fairly mild with winds under 10 MPH and less than a half an inch of rain overnight. Not what I would consider a heavy storm. *nod* but that's 56K dialup, which is a crapshoot anyhow. I'd be more interested in finding out if there were any weather-related issues with services that are normally more stable than dialup.Rains do cause telco data problems. When I had dial-up, my maximum rate dropeed from about 45K to 37Kbps during and for a day or two following rain. -- Steve Sobol, Professional Geek 888-480-4638 PGP: 0xE3AE35ED Company website: http://JustThe.net/ Personal blog, resume, portfolio: http://SteveSobol.com/ E: [email protected] Snail: 22674 Motnocab Road, Apple Valley, CA 92307
