Why is it that everytime I mention "not having downtime," something causes downtime? :) In case anyone noticed the outage we had tonight, and for those who didn't: one of Worldcom's routers went on vacation for about 6 hours tonight. This wasn't at all related to the Rhythms -> Worldcom switch, it was a random hardware failure. Kudos to the guys at ORI and Worldcom, who responded within 30 minutes of my call.
