AT&T/Alternet outage in Chicago?

Sat Dec 8 03:08:08 UTC 2001

I'm not sure what happened, and all my normal sources came
up empty.  I did look at some very old monitoring pages, and
Downers Grove suddenly showed up in some traceroutes.  I hadn't
seen Downers Grove in years.

It was almost like some forwarding tables were corrupted in a
couple of routers in Chicago.  But there didn't seem to be a
pattern I could determine before it cleared up.
