I'm sorry to say that whoever said that didn't know the issue since it  
wasn't a level 3 problem. That router in NYC is the border and bgp was  
up and routing fine over that interface to another entity. Something  
was wrong on the return path on the other side past that customer  
access router.

I worked with Drew offline and after clearing one side, efforts were  
underway to contact the other entity and get it resolved when it  
returned to normal.
