not to put too fine a point on it, but this post appears, to me, to be unmitigated (or poorly mitigated) crap. many, many of the fiber paths between atlanta and houston don't go v. close to new orleans. most of them appear to be functioning rather well. the linked-to story appears only to refer to Internet2, not exactly "the internet", really. renesys will be releasing a report on the net impacts of this event early-to-mid next week and it should have detail related to who was out (mostly locally originated) and when and for how long. we've got some good data from our routing data sources and some interesting data contributed by other parties as well. if anyone has information about broader net-effects of this outage that you'd like to share, pls let me know or post to the list here. t. -- _____________________________________________________________________ todd underwood director of operations & security renesys - interdomain intelligence todd () renesys com www.renesys.com
