Gary,

I understand your statement, but I am sure the gentleman below does not.

If you want a story to be done, so that the world can see how something like this can impact thousands of businesses, the best bet would be to help educate this guy so that he has something to write.

Are, were you trying to scare him off from doing a story?

Personally, I am quote fed up with the issues that the huge providers have and cause, yet never have anyone document it, find out about it, or do anything about it. I laud this guys effort for actually trying to do his job and expose something that needs to be exposed.

I am now putting on my level-3 bullet proof jacket, and will be looking over my shoulder for the next 3 NANOGs.

I'm a reporter with InformationWeek magazine. I'm trying to get an idea
of the
significance of this morning's outage. Has Level 3 communicated with you
about
the cause of the outage? How greatly did the outage affect you or your
customers? Was this an unusually large event?
Thanks,
