First off, Thanks Dakota Scout for covering this issue. I had to tell my friends and family about the outage and that I was effected. It was a safety net which was unexpectedly removed.

About the outages in general, it seems highly unlikely that two major fiber optics hubs servicing Nebraska, especially Omaha, would go down at the same time without a coordinated effort. Also, the lack of information about the most recent outage is peculiar to me. A light pole has anything to do with the lines which convey 911 calls?

There seems to be a lack of accountability here, especially when people's lives are at stake.
