When there’s no deer, or quail, or whatever that’s hunters shoot up in The Dalles around, bored gunmen had been playing target practice with the insulators on Google’s electricity distribution poles. It’s so problematic Google’s moving their fibers underground.
The fibers which are continually being shot down connect to Google’s $600 million data center inside the Dalles. It happens as soon as hunting season starts each November, so now a fed-up Google is building an underground path for it.
On one snowstormy occasion, Google repairmen couldn’t be transported to the realm of a contemporary cut. Normally sent out by helicopter or Caterpillar tractor, three technicians had to cross country ski for three days to succeed in and then fix the damaged fiber. [ IT News via Oregon Business ]
