Gridlock
At Noon CDT Apple is releasing iOS8 which means that all of the cell networks and WiFi hotspots will be jammed to receive the ‘working’ symbol as the Apple servers grind their little spindles to molten destruction.
Releasing this to every device at the same time is definitely going to clog the ‘tubes’. It would be a good time to do something nefarious or nasty as communications will be crippled for a few hours.
I won’t try to use the iPAD today.
