Well although that is obviously a possibility (Backhoe comes to mind)
our connectivity comes from three different providers:

1. ELI
2. Sprint
3. TimeWarner

Also our connectivity is physically accessible my half a dozen people
within 30 minutes, even at 3:00 AM. If something goes down, the whole
freaking world is notified to make sure it is getting worked on. Did I
mention the natural gas fired generator? ;)

I just want to help make the parts of the project that we can, as
reliable as possible.

Sincerely,
