Ok, so the next question is, what harm would a simple advance notice of 
'emergency maintenance' caused, vs the very real hassle and 
inconvenience that DS3-down in the middle of the night caused for 
operations staff? I personally was yanked out of bed by my network

Try no notice at all and 4 GigEs of upstream bandwidth down at 1:30am.  :-(
