There is a simple way to take the Internet offline:

Take the powergrid down.

You don't even have to know how to use a computer to do that.
That happened here we were down for about a day and a half!I think it was one of the biggest blackouts in US history.

Rosedale, NY		 True, but I was still able to use my aol account to dial into Virginia. Even though most of the sites hosted in the affected area were down, the rest were working without a hitch.

Too bad my battery died after 2 hours. :-(
