gee bill, bucking for your own column in boardwatch again? our noc still does an exemplary job, thanks. we don't do maintenance in the middle of a sunday afternoon, unless of course, you were in australia at the time. you've been around long enough to know the drill, you call your upstream, he calls his, etc., etc., you expect our front line noc to know you by name? things weren't always this way of course, just like rfc 1104, information goes out of date :-).

Well, we could talk about the repeated outages of MCI....
Last Thursday and again on Sunday, I saw all my traffic between myself in Michigan and my client in Mississippi going to Atlanta and a black hole, instead of via Houston and Memphis. This went for several hours before I called MCI NOC.
I used to think the MCI NOC did an exemplary job. I guess that was when they were using BBN.
