My home/consulting business ISP and my current work ISP's connectivity have been bit by what appears on first examination to be a Worldcom ATM failure starting about 2 hours ago (12:45 PST or so). It appears to be affecting stuff as widely spread as both west and east coast and connecting circuits. As I am not a direct customer I have no standing to ask them directly what went bang, so take this diagnosis with a grain of salt. -george william herbert gherbert@retro.com
