Several days ago somebody cut both sides of a SONET ring in Newfoundland.
From the article:
The Atlantic Communications and Technical Workers, the union
representing the striking employees, was quick to say they weren't
responsible for the massive phone failure, with a spokesman adding that
union members have been warned not to tamper with phone-company equipment.
