I find it interesting that every time there is discussion on NANOG
that actually is pertinent to network operations, someone feels the
need to point out that it is somehow inappropriate for this list.
By the time I saw messages related to as7007 I had already diagnosed
the problem, but I don't see anything inappropriate about discussing
it here.

Why are so many people (who should know better!) posting "why is the
Internet broken" messages to NANOG?  I mean, it's not like the mail is
going to get delivered until AFTER the problem is fixed!

Kinda reminds me of the individuals who show up in the IETF terminal
room unable to configure TCP/IP on their Win95 laptop.

Come on people, THINK.  E-mail is not an efficient way of discussing
an outage in progress!
