I wonder if the contractor ever heard of an umbrella. Do they even have them

> Fiber cut silences SETI@Home, Lawrence Hall of Science

> 2 March 2001
>
> At about 3:30 AM PST on 27 February an optical fiber cable connecting the
> U.C. Berkeley campus with the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory was
cut,
> apparently by vandals trying to "salvage" copper from other nearby cables.
>
> The broken fiber carries data and voice connections for LBNL and also for
> the Space Sciences Lab and the Lawrence Hall of Science. SSL is where the

> Repairs were supposed to be completed late today, but have been delayed
due

combined

site.
> We are now being told that the contractors will somehow be able to reach
the
> site tomorrow morning, 3 March, and should finish the repair late in the
> day.
