I would think there might be a few folk streaming live feeds during this period. Might even result in a higher traffic load leading up to and through the relevant period.

Somehow I get the idea traffic flows will increase due to people following videostreams of memorial services. -- Sabri Berisha - www.cluecentral.net - "I route, therefore you are" Met z'n negenen een meisje dwingen bruistabletten te eten: http://www.cluecentral.net/veritas/
