So, anyone have a better story (or more info )than "major problems in Rialto" :-) Looks like it could either be a massive router failure, or a(nother) fiber cut, since I can't seem to get to any of the Bloomington routers...

And of course, anything that happens to lie in the path of said trench experiences an abrupt separation. -----Original Message----- From: Paul Ferguson [SMTP:pferguso@cisco.com] Sent: Tuesday, July 29, 1997 10:50 AM To: Peter Galbavy Cc: nanog(a)merit.edu Subject: RE: "1997, the Year of the Backhoe" ...Re: Fiber Cut InSterling VA.
