...and anyway, this is NANOG. not AUSNOG. Oops, I mean NZNOG. (or APNOG) Please show some patience and tolerance, Simon - this is a major catastrophe. If you see threads that say "WTC" or "World Trade Center", you can safely delete those messages. If it happened in Sydney, I don't think we'd be asking Geoff Huston and the rest of the Aussie operators to tone it down. I've personally been following the threads and find them alternately amusing, tragic, and educational, but YMMV. <del> ----- Original Message ----- From: "John Fraizer" <nanog@Overkill.EnterZone.Net> To: "Simon Lyall" <simon.lyall@ihug.co.nz> Cc: <nanog@merit.edu> Sent: Tuesday, September 11, 2001 7:45 PM Subject: Re: Operational Content only please.
Simon. The United States of America (as a whole) is under a state of National Emergency. Many portions of the nation have states of communications emergency in effect. Given the impact of this cowardly act by savage bastards on the nation that not only invented the net but for the larger part *IS* the internet (for every 1 site you can name in NZ that a US citizen would visit on a regular basis, I can name 1000's in the US that NZ citizens visit on a DAILY basis), I submit that ANY news related to this event is on-topic and much more impacting to the operations of the Internet as a whole than arguements about NAT, PMTU, SPAM, blah blah blah.

I realize this is a big story and some of you are worried about friends/family but can we please keep posts to this list on-topic?
General news about the recent attacks you can get from your TV or news related web sites.
The only stuff here should be here is how it specificly affects Internet links, sites and traffic.
