sigh. is this an attack by a black hat, or by an rir and researchers who do not know how to say "oops, sorreee!?"

Even weirder, a remote server running SmokePing showed a 11ms increase in latency from 24ms to 35ms, which started after service was restored, then a drop at precisely 11:00PM Eastern back to original, lower levels of latency. That is, 4:45PM 24ms on Level3 4:50PM to 5:07PM - Level3 outage 5:08PM to 10:59: 35ms on Level3 11:00PM and after: 24ms on Level3 Very odd. --Patrick
