So at least I wasn't the only one that felt this.  Did Level3 ever say
what blew up on their network?


Not yet.

There was a small tremor at 18:59 followed by a major shock at 19:03. 
All my traffic rerouted then Level3 came back at 19:20.  followed by a
'set community no-export' :)

The information I got was that it "...was caused by a BGP flap between
their border routers and core routers in the Los Angeles area."
