Considering that I >was there (in SF) and you weren't, I'd rely more on experience than on yours. Overloading is indeed the usual problem, not failure of infrastructure.

Wireless messaging is the recommended way to keep in touch during emergencies while minimizing load on the infrastructure. >I'm wondering how many hams had/have backup power for their rigs.
