I don't have AT&T and many of my friends do and they did lose phone/internet for a few days. Our city is still trying to digest all of this as most of you are as well. So surreal to wake up to Christmas morning and see beloved downdown city blocks in shambles.
And the fact there were no casualties except for the bomber was a huge relief. Mad props to the police who helped evacuate the buildings. I think it would be a lot worse off and almost thankful there was mostly structural damage.
Hat's off to the Officers that put themselves in harms way to get all the local folks out of the danger zone. Bizarre how the bomber gave fair warning and his choice of music before the blast. Clearly not directed at people... but a BIG corporate entity.
Note there is a large AT&T building downtown (aka "The Batman Building"), however this was a few blocks away at their data center in the old Bell South Building. Clearly not as big a bomb as the Oklahoma City bombing in 1994 thankfully.
We are 15-20 miles from downtown and heard the blast clearly. It's surreal to be having Christmas with your kids while knowing all of that is going on in the backdrop.
