To be honest, it was all handled well (other than the redundancy).
After talking to the support staff, it appears both the feed-squirrel web
and db servers weren't in the effected building, but a bit of network
wizardry that the site is dependent on was toasted by the outage, which is

This is really odd, but I called HMS at 10 last night, when the call volume
had cooled down, and supposedly, The 2 DCs, are on a network, and have
redundancy, and disparate access points. Supposedly they never thought a
main terminal could be hit that easily. I am interested in what they are
doing
Yeah, I was impressed, Minor damage control from our end since most of our
sites were in the other datacenter but some items relying on
safesecureweb.com for https or external database access were down and they
resolved this fairly quickly.

Just thought I'd post a letter I just got from the CEO of host my site about
what happened. As expected it sounds like even though it was no fault of theirs
they will be taking some measures to make sure it doesnt happen again.

Kinda, we have some sites using the shared ssl certs which use
safesecureweb.com. That's not working too well.
Good news though is that our boxes are in the other data center and the
databases are located in the same one.

Fact is those construction guys are supposed to know about where
yup, i got about 30 sites on that datacenter, thankfully the rest are at
datacenter 2.
All 4 lines got cut and comcast cant fix them so they are having to replace the
whole sections of them.
The bad part is that they are supposed to rollover to the other datacenter and
it didnt happen, i
In my state, they are /required/ to find out about lines before digging,
and there is a service that will mark them for you. We had it done at
my house when we had a cable line installed, it didn't cost us any
money. My guess is they didn't even get the lines marked.

What I find hard to understand is how all cables were cut at the same time.
