Well said, Dave. Thank you for keeping us in the right perspective on things.

Regards,

All goes to show a few things:

 1. RWTs are good... the quicker you discover these problems, the
    quicker they get fixed.
 2. Two heads (or more!) are better than one... Thanks to Sean for
    helping identify the problem quickly.  And thanks to Al and Mark for
    "hanging out" on this forum and giving us good feed back (and
    listening to feedback).
 3. Stuff happens.  Which is why having backup mechanisms to IPAWS
    remains important.  In our state, the same service (AlertSense) that
    provides the interface for generating IPAWS alerts, also makes those
    alerts available directly to our EAS Participants.  So those
    participants following our State Plan would still have received the
    alerts even if they couldn't poll IPAWS for a few hours.  There are
    other ways to accomplish the same redundancy, but the bottom line is
    "stuff happens".
