I have heard on the news that there was a big fire in a NY Bell switching
   center a week or so ago....
Something like 40,000 people without phones...
Hundreds of miles of cable as well as a new switch are being installed...
I heard that about a third of the affected phones have been restored,
   but many others won't be restored for weeks...
