Thanks to all who forwarded news links. I would like to pass my condolences along to Akamai employees on NANOG. It is a terrible thing when the world experiences something like this, but it is equally terrible when an Internet legend is lost.

Slashdot is reporting a rumor that Akamai's founder was onboard a plane into NYC at about the time of the crash. Can someone from Akamai confirm or deny?

Thanks, Tim
