They did, and I'm not down. I see Level 3 via Sprint and GNAPs/CENT

fine.
No, I mean: Why didn't *your upstream's* routes fall back to *their*
other
peers, who should be perfectly capable of transiting those packets?
Who is Level3's upstream?
Who is Cogent's upstream? (Actually, I know the answer to that, but
it's for partial connectivity, not full)
You seem to be confusing peering with transit...
