Is it me, or has nearly every cut in the past 6 months been Worldcom glass? Do they have any redundant rings? Looks like their growth has been too agressive for sound SONET engineering efforts to be employed. But, hey, they have a lot of glass... Chris

I believe it was repaired around 2230...it was 10 Worldcom OC-12's/423 DS3's nice little cut.

As far as I have heard from MFS, the cut is on a ring between Bolling Green and Fredericksburg. I also understand that it has been repaired.

Hello,
Seems to be a MFS fiber cut in Bowling Green, Virgina. This is all the information I have at this time.

yeah, they've had a few problems lately with squirrels burrowing under tracks, and chewing on fibre. The need to just lay out little bowls of Ex-Lax cookies for the animals, so they can stop moving trees for splices. And today I was whining about the concept of rings, too...I don't think they do...they were saying they couldn't re-route today because they only had 25 spare ds3's of bandwidth, and they used them, and that was it. anyway, here's to redundant glass *swig* -Taz On Thu, 17 Sep 1998, Martin, Christian wrote:
