That's great unless the pilot needs to check something in the plane. (I was sitting in first class once when they popped the carpet to check and make sure the landing gear was all the way down. Very unsettling.) -----Original Message----- From: John Hall [mailto:j.hall@f5.com] Sent: Wednesday, September 12, 2001 4:07 PM To: Vadim Antonov Cc: nanog(a)merit.edu Subject: Re: Analysis from a JHU CS Prof Bullet proof bulkhead separating the pilot's compartment from the cabin that is locked/unlocked externally by the ground crew.

Emergency Services Information for the N.Y.C. Area (fwd)
by deeann mikula 12 Sep '01

12 Sep '01

this is a great compendium of information regarding the emergency situation in the nyc area. it's from the nytimes direct mailing service. also, i just had a sobering conversation with a member of my verizon adsl team. i had simply asked where a favorite team member's normal work area is (yes, its nyc) and it turns out that she is "one of many MIA right now" and he described the chaos of hourly conference calls and trying to track down people who were working in the area. i was speechless, and i think i managed to croak out something pathetic expressing my concern. my heart goes out to them, and everyone with friends/coworkers/loved ones in the area. deeann m.m. mikula director of operations telerama public access internet http://www.telerama.com 1.877.688.3200 ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Wed, 12 Sep 2001 14:10:24 -0500 From: The New York Times Direct <NYTDirect(a)nytimes.com> To: **** Subject: Emergency Services Information for the N.Y.C.

Recovery > It will take years...
by clarke 12 Sep '01

12 Sep '01

I live in New York City and I can tell you, we had not fully recovered from the World Trade Center bombing in 1993. It will take years for a recovery in New York City. It's 3:39am and over the last 45 minutes I've seen and heard at least 4 jets flying overhead. Since the FAA has suspended all air traffic, by looking at the speed and hearing the sound I can only guess these are fighter pilots. Clarke

Fwd: power saving tip on GSRs - pls fwd
by Sean Donelan 12 Sep '01

12 Sep '01

A suggestion on how to reduce power consumption ------- Start of forwarded message ------- Subject: power saving tip on GSRs - pls fwd To: sean(a)donelan.com From: Eric Osborne <eosborne(a)cisco.com> Date: Wed, 12 Sep 2001 09:42:59 -0400 I don't think I have nanog-post capability, so I'm passing this on to you in order to share with the rest of the world; please pass on as you like. For folks concerned about power usage (i.e. buildings near WTC running on generator), 'hw-module slot <x> shut' on GSRs will power down a given linecard. This is useful for those whose LCs are installed but not in use. Of course, don't use this if you have one or more ports in use on an LC. 'sh led' will then show 'SLOT x : DOWNADMN' 'no hw-mod slot <x> shut' turns power back on. Supported command, too, unlike the 'test ...' sequence that does almost the same thing. Share and enjoy. eric ------- End of forwarded message -------

60 Hudson Evacuation ?
by Randy Neals 12 Sep '01

12 Sep '01

It has been reported to us that 60 Hudson was evacuated and is now behind the security perimeter. Can anyone substantiate this? Current new releases from ConEdison indicate 60 Hudson is not within the grid outages listed. Have there been any changes this morning? -Randy
