Verizon said a third-party provider's fiber cable was cut. Killed wireless service to Lansing, Jackson and multiple outlying areas in southern lower Michigan for about seven hours. Interesting to watch people react, especially younger folks who have never experienced life without cell phones. Even we old(er) farts were reminded just how much we've become accustomed to that level of connectivity. Gave me a chance to reminisce about the days when the phone was a gadget that plugged into the wall and stayed in the house while we ran our errands. Thank God we had our CB radios!
