Whenever you get simultaneous outages for multiple telecom services at the same time it's almost always due to a local issue like a major cable cut or a central office fire. Sounds like a SONET ring that was either unprotected or both legs cut. After 10 minutes someone manually rerouted the circuits. --Michael Dillon P.S. Larry, what do you think? Leading by example?
