Massive sprintlink problems?

[Michael Loftis <mloftis () wgops com>]

Anyone else seeing this::  (1sec+ delay to my idle DSL line across 
sprintlink...)

traceroute is definitely taking an asymmetric path, since pings and tcp 
connections are consistent 1sec plus RTT starting somewhere in seattle or 
tacoma.....tok? tokyo?  Anyway before I start rattling this around I wanted 
to see if anyone else is seeing this to/from other destinations.
