And in August of 2003, a tree limb in Ohio caused the biggest blackout in US
history.
If the operators of 100+ year technology (the Power Grid) are incapable of
routing around major outages, I suspect the same lack of thinking and
planning is at fault in this issue as well.

My neighbor who is also on Charter was able to route through us, and did
so during their last outage. He still has a couple of T1s through AT&T
that are paid through the end of December, so he ended up routing
through those during this one.
OSPF and properly setup costs/NAT rules is wonderful
It was resolved about 1:30am MST. I watched the first pings start
passing from my edge router and switched back over within about 10
seconds. Charter didn't call anyone until 5am, so that is the time we
are using to figure our credits.
I get a $40 credit on next months bill. Whoopideee do
Outages mailing list had one member claim it was resolved at 2:30am.
Is this not so?

This is where it would be nice if WISPs were friendly enough with each other
in their area to interconnect their networks.

This is why we have 3 different providers, with different paths out of
our NOC and on different fiber pairs leaving town.
Qwest had an outage here about 9 months ago that took two of my
competitors completely down for 5 hours... yet we were completely
unaffected. :)

Timing of this "Failure of Critical Infrastructure" seems suspect to
Charter's bankruptcy. All existing outstanding shares have been cancelled.
I wonder if Paul Allen somehow left Qwest holding the bag like he did the
rest of his shareholders...just a thought.

Mediacomm was having some bad equipment problems in Marshalltown or
Des Moines a couple months ago. It was on a hand off to Sprint on
some fiber shelf. It bit us twice, each on a Sunday, for most of the
day. After the second episode, which apparently happened after
scheduled maintenance, I a
