* Visits from Enron's gas pipeline guys to learn how to install routers for their network commodity project
- tptacek 13y agoI was at a CDN startup in '99 and remember competitive slide decks with Enron's name on them.
- jhallenworld 13y agoI remember one of the pipeline guys telling us a story about a trench collapse which buried a worker. The backhoe operator panicked and tried to dig him out, but ended up cutting the guy in half. I think this was in response to our story of a near-miss when a (7 ft, 23 inch rack) router dropped off the shipping dock, nearly crushing someone. Employees were no longer allowed to move routers after that incident- it became the shipping company's problem.
