Waste of Fiber

I think that this is a waste of fiber just to be used for the amber alert system. I do think this system is very good but a simple text alert doesn't need a fiber and total cisco ip telephony system.

Hearndon is wired to a ridiculous extent, as is the whole area surrounding Dulles. AOL has (had?) their HQ there, and that's where nearly all the pre-bubble-burst hosting providers were based.

I'm not sure how they were affected by the downturn or if they're back on the upswing, but there were many thousands square feet of empty, cheap, wired to the teeth office buildings available.

CIA is in Langley,Va which is a section of McLean, Va near the intersection of Rte 123 and GW Parkway, about 15 miles from the Dulles Tech Corridor where Herndon and Dulles airport and USCustoms and the DEA and INS Field offices are located. What towns do with there fiber installations that they paid for is there buisness. Oh by the way it's not a waste of fiber since you can pipe a whole lot more information thru it then you can thru copper because the light pulses can be coded.;).
