I'm not sure if their theory is correct.  Routing to www.apple.com
from EUnet/UUNET and from carpeNet/Nacamar both go through the
same Palo Alto link, but look at this ping -c 20 -q www.apple.com  ..

* via EUnet/UUNET
    --- www.apple.com ping statistics ---
    20 packets transmitted, 13 packets received, 35% packet loss
    round-trip min/avg/max = 2645.188/2724.840/3156.298 ms

* via carpeNet/Nacamar
    --- www.apple.com ping statistics ---
    20 packets transmitted, 20 packets received, 0% packet loss
    round-trip min/avg/max = 155.404/180.195/249.367 ms

The above was yesterday after I saw the report.  The guy at seicom.net
who posted the original problem is also going via UUNET in Frankfurt
(same as EUnet).
