	A bit more "clue"... :)

	1) If its been discussed before, I was out that day... But it seems
that CERF NET route-server isn't quite authoritative:

route-server>sho ip bgp 204.107.90.128
% Network not in table

route-server>sho ip bgp

route-server>


	2) The other route-server it wasn't showing up in is my "backup"
provider. I'm trying to get clarification, but I think my backup provider
relies too heavily on my primary provider. So yea, it would make sense, if
Level3 had an issue, that the provider USING L3 would have an issue.

	3) I've gotten zip from L3 about any of this.


	Can anyone atleast, once again, despite a certain list members
contentions, tell me I'm not crazy. That someone else SOMEWHERE saw it?
(Or more DIDN'T see RR. :) )
