Did anyone notice anything starange in GlobalCrossing network around 17:00 EDT today (especially in NYC)? I am staring at 30% traffic drop in a period of under 10 minutes...

Interestingly, a problem that was happening .... Good route, good traceroute, good ping.... But a GET / into port 80, hung.... to yahoo.com, excite.com.... google.com. It was sporadic, it would come and go.... mostly gone, but, it would recover for moments.... It repaired itself/was fixed, and coincided with shutting down a UUnet feed, at almost exactly the same moment as when you posted your message.... Serendipity ?
