This is a surprise to me. Verizon has changed the modem proved
to DSL customers. It was possible to both ping and traceroute to verizon
through the old modem. Not with the new modem. I generally ping mindspring to 
test connectivity. Only tried verizon this morning because I was running
out of ideas. Also fvwm won't start - says it can't access the display. kde 
works though.
