Internet 1, Backhoe 0

Hot Diggety! On a bright and sunny day, Jeff Weisberg allegedly said...

[Atlantic County, NJ] While attempting to wreck
havoc on the world's telecommunications infrastructure,
a backhoe mistook a gas main as a fiber optic cable.
The evil yellow beast was destroyed in the resulting
fireball.

Now *that*'s poetic justice! Too bad we don't have video of this
happy event :slight_smile:

Now just if we could get those t-shirts with backhoes-targeted-in-gun-sights,
then that'd be 20-30 orders right there, easily.

Add five more orders, for MHSC.

We'd definately take a few dozen.
