Well, the Tagruato deep-sea drilling company has been having troubles of late. Seems a likely link:

Quote:
Our newest and brightest oil rigging development, Chuai Station, was attacked by a terrorist environment group called Tidowave. They released a series of explosions on the station, causing the loss of life and bringing the rig down into its knees. Tagruato has faced threats from this group for many years and has, with the help of our friends in the police forces, fought off many prior attacks. This blow, however, was too strong to miss us. The Chuai Station was damaged.
Link to news report.

Duh, haven't you guys learned anything? Obviously it was George Bush who did it and now Michael Moore is going to have to make a shockingly revealing documentary about Bush's ties to extremist underwater cable cutting monkeys, followed by an enlightening Al Gore documentary warning us about the dangers of cable warming and catastrophic fiber optic change. It might even be so bad that Sean Penn will have to get a photographer and a row boat and paddle out to repair the cables himself!

Damn you George Bush! Damn you to hell!!!!

I was probably feeling - or hearing - the effects of increased activity on remining cables when I talked to Amazon support in India on Sunday. Not only was the connection VERY bad (like in the old days when you got an overseas call) but the hold music was Indian and the CS guy asked if he could hold me for a second.

Did anyone else notice that Turkey is spelled Turkiye on this map? It appears to be a regional spelling rather than a typo (they have "Turkey" right under it). Just something I noticed.

They also have a different spelling of Greece, but I do not feel like hunting down those characters.
