Hi,
I was wondering if anyone has heard of the following term. I received it as a notification of an outtage from a vendor :
At 5:35 CST, October 19, 1998 our AT&T backbone had 23 T-3's cut by a contractor. This caused a massive BIFF (Backhoe Induced Fiber Failure).
Sure ... it's a term commonly used to describe a SNAPU. (Situation Normal, All Ploughed Up) --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Andrew W.
