Horse-pucky! Every ISP should be keeping their customers informed on
network troubles and outages. We have an outage mailing list that any
customer; at any speed can receive network trouble reports that come
directly from our engineering staff or any of our upline providers.
If you're a business and need 'business class' service and you're not
being informed of outages -- get a new provider.
