from the you're-grounded dept.

Cringley speculates like hell:

Delta Airlines last night suffered a major power outage at its data center in Atlanta that led to a systemwide shutdown of its computer network, stranding airliners and canceling flights all over the world. You already know that. What you may not know, however, is the likely role in the crisis of IT outsourcing and offshoring.

Do any Soylentils have inside/better information?

    >>" I made a vow to boycott air travel until the TSA is eliminated"

    That'll show'em, sparky.

    You forgot to add: "WAKE UP SHEEPLE!!!"

    Can you tell us something about FEMA camps, too?

    I think everybody would be a lot happier if they refused to knuckle under the fear-mongering and security theatre, but that's just me apparently.

      People don't like to think. You're a statistical aberration.

          Well, I guess this whole site is a statistical anomaly. :-)
