What is the cause of the outage? Did you use the lighted screen from your phone to find your car? How'd you manage to post this? Hope this resolves soon!

they don't know the cause. they keep saying 'disruption' of service. I have a flip phone, so I held it open and swung it in front of me, and walked very slowly to my car. barely little light, but it was like super,super,pitch black in the garage.

I have a USB laptop cellphone modem - so even though I've got 1 bar, I can get a slow connection. Like anyone who's currently using their phone web function. Which is probably why the regular phone service is not working. It's so strange, I can surf, people can use twitter/fb/email, but can't call anyone.

Twitter is all abuzz this morning about it being an 'employee generated outage'! If that's true, someone is SO fired! :-0
