Sprint has nothing to do with the loops. Gordon -- you
as a practioning journalist should know better than to
trust "information" of hear-say, particluarly when the
source explicitly disclaimed any first-hand knowledge.
Sprint customers are informed about scheduled maintenance
and outages by means of a special mailing list.

Did this happen on Friday? If so I heard from a directly knowledgeable
source that there was a power failure in Dallas that affected the MFS pop
there and that MFS had to bring in a truck with generators to get the
node operational again. If this is correct wold the looping be really
blamable to either UUNET or Sprint?
