Obligatory link to the absolutely brilliant Neal Stephenson article about a very long fiber optic cable. "Mother Earth Mother Board" http://www.wired.com/wired/archive/4.12/ffglass_pr.html

This is my all-time favourite Wired article, a fascinating read...so much so, that I still have the original print edition.

I highly commend this article if you haven't read it. Utterly fascinating and well-wrote.
