My phone service is knocked out due to explosion

There were theories somewhere on the www that this was election related, "the servers" for "the machines" and so on

Mitch I'm surprised you lost service that far away. I can see "some areas" might not be accessible
Yep it surprised me to, our local tv station in Bowling green broadcast that areas in southern Kentucky was affected and gave us emergency numbers to call because our 911 service is affected. It is only my AT&T cell phone that's not working, my home land line still works.
