-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Bellevue/Redmond area went for a ride, but no damage from my perspective. No land line interruption and T1 service stayed solid into the Westin. My sprint PCS service was getting fast busy dialing out to a land line, but wireless web browsing still worked fine. I had fully working cell service back by 12:30PM. As of 1:50PM, all service seems to be normal. Our service providers phones are currently non-op however, but no outages noticed so far. Reports I've seen so far are saying that this was not the big quake predicted for this area, so I'm wondering what effects this quake will have on the one building.

Currently we get a recording that "due to an earthquake in the area you are calling we cannot complete the call"... Anyone have alternate TAP numbers for ATT wireless? This one has been problematic pre-earthquake as well...

Nope, I-90 crosses Mercer Island and is East-West towards Boston. I-5 is North-South and runs through downtown Seattle.

and i95 is where they meet. locals know it as the additive interchange. we tried a multiplicative interchange, but the packet loss was too great due to the limited size of the signs. randy

I dunno, "I-450" would fit on a highway sign just fine.... or "Exit 450"... -- Steven J.

Depends whether it's a dot product or a cross product. Those usually end up involving trigonometry - and you *never* get 'sin(anything)' to fit on a small sign. ;)

Room can always be found for sin.
