What to do when the Internet goes down

Okay, this is actually kind of sad.

I mean, do we really need a webpage that tells us what to do when our Internet connection goes down? Well, apparently we do, because a couple of crazy Canadians have put one up. So, the next time your local phone or cable company decides to help you discover a life beyond the Internet, you’ll have a resource. Of course, you’ll want to print this out and keep it handy, or at least save it to your hard drive, so that when the Internet goes out you’ll have it. (Think about it! If you can’t get to the Internet, you can’t see a webpage on someone else’s server!)
