[news.config] UUNET apparently having trouble

csg@pyramid.pyramid.com (Carl S. Gutekunst) (01/18/90)

UUNet is not answering telephone calls, and when I dial their voice number I
get an answering service that explains that UUNet is having trouble with it's
phone lines. Compuserve access is dead, too, though, which suggests that there
may be some more generalized problem. I don't have Internet access, so I can't
try that.

Traceroute from Michigan shows that bits bound for uunet.uu.net get as
far as "uunet.sura.net" and then vanish into the vapor, so it would
seem be a complete cut.
