Some ISPs managed to get FEMA to let a tanker through and that's how we're back up. It wasn't pretty though. Marshall Eubanks: I remember that after 9/11 the real network hits started about 3 days later, when the diesel generators started running out of fuel in the downtown telco hotels, and there was no way to physically get fuel trucks to their location. The equipment and generators were fine, they just ran out of fuel. If you look at the flooding in downtown New Orleans, it looks like this might happen again there.
