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.
Does Worldcom have any websites updating the status of their ATM network? The UUNET site has no mention of this, but worldcom's networks aren't very integrated, so it was possible the uunet portion of worldcom was unaffected.
