Nov 9 communications shutdown: A system reboot needed to activate new code?

My take on the communications shutdown:
In what is obviously a muscle flexing exercise meant to show the public just how much power and control the federal government really has, all communications will be cut off for an estimated three minutes on November 9[SUP]th[/SUP], 2011.

Claiming this is a test of the emergency response system, the terror alert system, and any other excuse they can come up with, Fema (that would be the same FEMA in charge of those camps they deny exist) will conduct a complete communications shutdown: all TV, radio, internet, and phone systems will be disabled simultaneously. This will be at 1:00 CST.

I am trying to figure out what kind of national emergency would require cutting all communications, broadcasts and internet use? Maybe an emergency in which the government itself feels threatened by …….the people? If this were a test to make sure the system was intact in the event of an emergency I could understand it. But that isn’t what this is. This is a test meant to ensure that the apparatus is in place and operational in the event the government wants to prevent communication between citizens: this is a test to make sure they CAN shut it all down if they choose to....Rest HERE:
 
Funny to me how government attempts to effectively "shut off" the internet in various Arabic countries during their protest organization were decried. If this "total shutdown" is successful, I'm sure that there will be very little in the news media that connects this "test" with actions of certain less than friendly governments overseas.
 
Chris, take a look at my post in the Question Bank- I have a direct source saying that this test is really more than a test...
