Everybody is afraid of airplanes falling out of the sky from this, but
it's actually even more critical in two different areas:
1.Telecommunications. All of our synchronous networks are carefully
timed. The vast majority of the networks are times off of GPS signals.
Interference caused drift will bring a network down hard. Kiss your
telephones (and cellphones) goodbye when this happens.
2.Surveying. There are legal implications to this which would easily
trump that 2.9 Billion dollar investment. I can't imagine what
nightmares hide behind that curtain.
