I believe Joel Baker posted earlier saying Level3.net was having router issues out of Dallas. That have anything to do with it, perhaps?

I don't know. route-views.oregon-ix.net as measured by http://kahuna.telstra.net//bgp2/as6447/ shows a big drop in routes on the 2 day report. But none of the other BGP tables show any unusual changes. www.internetpulse.com indicated problems with their San Francisco beacon. None of the other public Internet measurement sites showed problems. I had intermitent problems getting from the west coast to the east coast for 30 minutes. Everything is back to normal now.
