* You need to conduct a FIXING FIBER DRILL and some training for BACKHOE and DRILL/BORING machine operators instead ;-) Some organization needs to figure out how to have these vehicles or machines NOT cut fibre. Geeze it's not like these people have never seen a "Call xxxxx before digging" sign before. Who makes sure these companies know where not to DIG or DRILL or BORE???? What's their professional certification organization? (union?) Can we give them a free FIBER and CABLE map somehow? How about a free subscription to "Don't Dig Here" magazine (if there was one ;-) At 02:16 PM 4/14/99 -0500, you wrote:

Yes, I'm still trying to work my way through the NOC contact list, but I keep getting interrupted by fiber outages around the country. At this rate I'm never going to get through.
Question: for those who have experienced my of my phone calls in the past, how disruptive is it? If I went ahead, and continued going down the list during these outages, if I called your NOC during a fiber cut, would that be too distracting? Or am I just better off waiting until the next quiet period?
