It's more informative than http://www.noc.uu.net/:

"Backbone: WorldCom is currently experiencing an interruption of service in
various hubs in the U.S. We are working to restore service as quickly as
possible."

It has said that all day.

> what *caused* the outage?

I suggest that WorldCom/UUnet customers should ask WorldCom/UUnet for more
details.  And those of us affected indirectly would like to know if there's
an expected time-to-repair.
