Here  in Northern Virginia / Tyco Road, everything went down at 2:00 AM EDT and seemed to 
come back at about 4:00 AM. BGP looks normal, but my traffic is still down by a factor of ~ 2.
Multicast beacon connectivity  is also still lousy, so  I would tentatively conclude that there are
still problems out there somewhere.

On the other hand, streaming audio to my home in Cox Communications doesn't seem to have lost a
packet in 2 hours.
