It's possibly the MCI WorldCom operations syndrome: "Ignore the issue, then construct a plausible excuse if the issue does not go away!"

      Please wait for the excuse. Its coming.  -;)

              Ya...I have many circuits w/ UUNet, and I've noticed a considerable drop in
              their 'help-desk' responce.  Hell, I don't even get an email back anymore
              saying that they received my email.  It seems I find routing issues before
              they do, and when I do, they don't even let me know if they are working on
              them or anything.
