I think that would change the list as everyone has come to know it. I think power outages should remain a root cause and not an outage in and of itself. Most come here to discuss network outages and the like. I think including power outages would amount to spam for alot of members. That being said a separate list for power outages or even one that covers all utilities may be useful, depending on volume. <br>

I was just poking around Wikipedia, looking at the TAT-14 page from that<br>
nice cable map someone just posted, and I found myself wandering onto pages<br>
about underwater *power* distribution cable runs.<br>
<br>
And that leads me, since I myself pay attention to the Grid, to wonder:<br>
<br>
Is that, as are so many things, Just Me? Or should our dashboard cover<br>
power issues as well as the datacom issues we have links for now?<br>
<br>
I can't set reply-to, Zimbra's not a "real" Internet mailer, but please<br>
reply to -discussion.<br>
