And when it's restored because they had to fix a tower or something?

Cell phone outages happened well BEFORE 9/11 was ever dreamt of...

It's tinfoil nuttery to think that each and every thing is somehow terror related.

[WhistlingPastTheGraveyard]

I'm not particularly concerned with whatever colorful slurs you choose to apply to people who may have their guard up today. I do know there was a massive terror attack planned in which the attackers intended to use cell phones to detonate explosives designed to kill thousands of civilians. Therefore, I will consider the possibility that a major outage - especially one in NYC -- could be related to the days events.

If considering a possibility on a day like today is considered "tinfoil nuttery", I guess we'll just have to live with that.
