Subsim mirrored in case lights out in Houston (???)
I was just wondering if this site is mirrored in such a way, so that if electricity drops in Houston for a while, we can still acquire updated page views. I think Neal lives there. Thanks.

The main servers (2) are at the EV1 datacenter in ....Houston (naturally). I think they will be ok, we may see some downtime if there are repeated electrical outages but I think with Rita passing north of H-town, there will be no effect.

Forget the servers I'm more concerned about the USS Cavalla down in Galvston.

Who thought that Subsim.com couldn't stand a storm & a splash?
The datacenter closed hatches and switched from diesel to batteries. Piece of cake!
