MCI routing loop near Chicago
As Alexander Koch pointed out I could have been more detailed in my post with respect to methods attempted to notify the relevant parties prior to posting to the NANOG list. With that in mind, after roughly two hours of attempting to notify MCI through the available channels receiving only two responses, both from MCI (US Robotics can not respond, their poor DNS setup has left me with no means to contact them via e-mail (NS2.RACKSPACE.COM doesn't appear to know about USR and their primary is unreachable to me and additionally through several on-line DNS lookup engines I tried)) I felt that I would post to NANOG as a last resort. For what its worth the auto-generated ticket number I received from MCI's "help4u@mci.com" address was: 2005062102342. The other response I received was an "Out of Office Autoreply" from hostmaster@mci.com.
