Our B peer went down and our A peer became unreachable via our other 
connections around 0933 EDT, and restored around 1140 EDT.  Their 
scheduled non-service-affecting maintenance from 0001 to 0700 CDT Sunday 
in Houston had gone awry, dropping our link for ~11 hours, so I 
initially assumed it was a related (Houston-specific) issue.  Apparently 
not...

Did they de-peer themselves?
