I was reminded of the value of wire/fiber last Friday when the highway was shut 
down near Cuyamungue after an accident.   Hundreds of cars filled the City of 
Gold parking lot and the surrounding area of Pojoaque for four hours or more.  
Of course everyone used their smartphone to report the situation, and the 
coverage just stopped completely.  No phone, no texting, no internet, nothing.  
 Maybe if we leave 5G up to the telcos we can expect that kind of load planning.

I think John Brown, from ABQ, proposed doing something similar in Santa Fe more 
than five years ago, but of course the City Council didn't understand what he 
was talking about.

How Google Fiber launched in Louisville in just 5 months
The flagbearer of gigabit internet got some momentum back by using a new 
deployment technique to light up its first city of 2017—in record time.
