Parking lot drainage is still working as expected, no hiccups from utility power, etc. You *can* still drive there, though they advise you don't and are offering free smart hands to keep people away. ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions Midwest Internet Exchange The Brothers WISP From: "Steve Jones" < thatoneguyst...@gmail.com > To: af@afmug.com Sent: Sunday, August 27, 2017 7:49:00 PM Subject: Re: [AFMUG] Harvey damage Wisps have the opportunity to really shine interconnecting response agencies if the right contacts were made. A convoy of wisp cows heading into texas would be awesome on wispa documents. I wonder if i could get the boss to loan out our portable tower. Interconnect regionally, locate temporary backbone to bring outward connectivity to that inyerconnect then gradually bring up interim cellular followed by public wifi, it would be glorious. With connectivity apparatus staging in from around the country, managed by a core group of logistics experts, high percentage coverage could be achieved in a matter of days on all comminications fronts. Buried connectivity will be croaked fow weeks, i assume all copper infrastructure is useless right now, much of the fiber is probably electronic component dead and inaccessible. The lunatics in the wisp industry i could see airbagging cows and floating them in for key deployments, that would be sexy seeing a rig floated to an area, raised then sunk for a temporary communications deployment On Aug 27, 2017 7:39 PM, "Mike Hammett" < af...@ics-il.net > wrote: <blockquote> No. WECAT is as far as I'm aware, fully operational.
