By sheer coincidence, it is only in the last few days that I have moved to Europe... Sean. - -- | The last few days have been hard, after the big Worldcom fiber cut | yesterday I thought life would get back to normal. Today Worldcom had | fiber cut in New York, and now this Sprint cut. If you add that with | the MAE-West outages it has not been a good week.
According to Sprint, this cut was also a Wcom cut.. they were leasing their fiber from Wcom. Hmm.. with the 496 DS-3's out in LA down yesterday, the Mae-West outages, and the 280 DS-3's down today, and the Wcom ATM network going crazy (subject to the LA outage), looks like UUnet should be real scared about this OC-12 upgrade on Wcom fiber.

Some of us noticed the 'coincidence' and have our suspicions.
