Trying to make the case that underground fiber will survive an earthquake
better than mountain top microwave for public safety uses.

Anyone have some stories, perhaps from Alaska on earthquake survivability
of fiber and microwave?
I have to go to a meeting with some lawmakers later in the week to make
the case that fiber has some slack, fiber can be fixed quickly. Towers
can tilt or tumble. Antennas can get misaligned. And sometimes it is
impossible to get to a snowy peak for a weak during a storm.
Fiber is scalable. Microwave can be jammed and intercepted. Etc etc.
Trying to be truthful and not gaslight anyone.
Just make sure your fiber doesn't run in conduit attached to any Cypress
Street Viaduct like structures.
