Not sure if this gets posted as I am on a very weak connection restored today after being unable to access ITVidya for a couple of days after the internet connection in Singapore got disrupted due to under sea cable damage in Taiwan Quake.

Yes, for a moment it looked like we have gone back to medieval age! The quake might have spared the massive damage to human lives this time on boxing day. But it has definitely exposed the vulnerability of central systems in a increasingly distributed and globalized era of connectivity.
