If City Data went off line................
what would you do? I know many of us had withdraws earlier this year when C-D was down for a few hours a few different days.
But what would you do if it went totally down? I have a few personal emails of some posters here but I would be really sad losing all my friends I have made here.
What say you? How do you prepare for a "what if" time?

I would probably go outside and be with my friends a bit more or go read or do something creative.

Jaxson!!!!! Bite your tongue!!!! OMG, are you privy to some inside information that has eluded the rest of us???  .....Such a scenario will not be allowed to occur. No, No, No!!!! Pardon me, I must find the last of my tranquilizers. Will I ever be the same? Will the sands of time continue to flutter down with each passing day, hour, minute??? I like my stars, I will miss my stars. They are My stars. I refuse to be w/o them. Oh, no, please, don't take them away from me. Please.
There, Jaxson, does that answer your question?????  |

Naw I was just talking with the kids about 'what if' the Internet went down. They all said they wouldn't want to live without their cell phones more. Got me to thinking about how much time I spend on C-D and how I would miss some of my daily friends talking in our threads.
BTW you are looking fabulously shining tonight grand lady. |

There's a real world out there, so if City Data went down it would not be the end of the world.

It's better to be safe than sorry so I would say start collecting more e-mails from your friends. 
Bring our friends with us and we'd have to play somewhere else.  |

Well...I'd be bummed about losing all 2000 DM's from the Mrs, but other than that I think I'd be alright. After a week of drowning my sorrows in whiskey or something. And I don't even drink whiskey. But I'd start. And probably drink for a week straight. And then check into rehab and seek counceling. But I think I'd be alright.
