What?!  But wait, just a day ago, a UUNET engineer was going on
about how ATM is good because it helps prevent failures at the IP 
layer...

That only works when there's enough reserve bandwidth out there in the 
ATM 'cloud' to reroute failed PVCs.  You'd think that they would  
diversely route their ATM trunks.

Maybe they turned auto-reroute off...
