        And whose fault is this?
        Some station engineer?
        How sad that EAS has such a low reputation
        in Monterey/Santa Cruz that the licensed
        stations have let things get to this point,
        and shame on CALFIRE and the Sheriff's
        office for not preparing for an emergency.

        The instance you now mention - cutting the
        phone fiber ... that will make reverse 911 real useful.
