All I Want for Christmas Contest 2024!

Hello all! Perhaps you noticed I was missing the last couple days. Rumor has it that Xfinity (aka Comcast) tried to do a system update for customers in parts of the Atlanta metro area, specifically Dunwoody where I live, and it failed miserably. Others think that the lines froze (is that a thing for fiber cables?). At any rate, I, along with several thousand others, didn't have cable and internet for most of Christmas Eve and all day Christmas. Someone wanted to see me cross the finish the line...

The fibers don't freeze, but the light inside the fibers freezes and expands and can cause them to break.
