DSL service down at Glassy

As of 9 am, my DSL service is down, with  a comment that  "it will be restored within 24 hours."   OK, for those who say that 4G wireless service is unrealiable,  by 4G service has never been down.  DSL goes down several times a year.  No storms this time.  Storms will cause DSL outages.  In national disaster events, FEMA relies on satellite uplink trucks as a  worst case scenario and cellphone as the next most reliable.  Cable next.  DSL last.

Oh, that's right, you can't read this blog entry because you don't have internet.  Dah!  Well, this can be an historic record.   Wait a minute!  If you have a data plan on your cellphone, then you can read this in "real time." I stand corrected to my correction.
