I looked into moving to Google to avoid the hassle of running a mail  
server. While looking at my Google mail Sprintlink (my ISP's  
connection to the world) went down.

No problem, I thought. I have a copy going to a backup site.  
Unfortunately that was Apple's mail server, also on the west coast,  
and also unreachable.

Some things should not be remoted to a thousand miles away.

(More trivia: Sprint's name reflects its origin as the Southern  
Pacific Railroad's internal communications network, hence SPRINT)
