OUTAGE: Westnet in Utah

All Westnet sites in Utah are currently down. The SprintLink
lines from the University of Utah are all down due to the loss of
SprintLink's Stockton 9 router. The lines went down at 11:20am.

Backup routing through Idaho is running, but the T1 from Utah
to Idaho is severely overloaded by the Utah traffic, meaning the sites
are effectively down.

Insert <almost everyone else> instead of MCI and you have a very good question.
I know NSI has an outage list, and we used NSR's back in the NSFnet days.
I do commend Sprint & NSI for notifying other providers of major outages.

On that note, NSI was key for us figuring out what
was really going on at MAE-EAST wrt the outages there.
