            Eh? Many Americans write dates in the MMDDYY format, whereas the rest of the world typically writes it as DDMMYY. They’re likely not from the US, so us saying 9-11 gets them confused on if we’re referring to November 9th, or if it’s September 11th.

            Unless this just whooshed over my head and it was a continuation of the above jokes… In that case, my bad.

    Good thing they made two of them so if anything happened to one they have the other as backup.

      Here a fucked up fact. I worked for a company who had Datacenter 1 in Tower 2 and Datacenter 2 in Tower 1. We lost both datacenters along with most IT personnel that day. Hundreds of people lost. After that, our DR plans had to include “all hands lost” as part of the scenarios. Before 9/11, the thought of losing everything and everyone never crossed most IT departments’ minds.
