FWIW, SBC is now AT&T,Inc since they acquired AT&T and then assumed the AT&T name since it is better known.But 28 hours for a T1 outage is pretty poor service. I had about 30 T1's, where I worked, and even a dispatch wouldn't have taken that long - even a major fiber cut. The T1 for the forum pipe must be a very low priority circuit. |

I agree with Jack. I work for a independent telephone company, and we NEVER let a T-1 stay down for more than 1 or 2 hours at the most. That's only if the problem is on our end. They must not want to pay the overtime for there special circuits technicians. |

First thing I did when the Forum would not come up was to check CNN to make sure California had not slide off into the ocean. |

That's so funny, Ray. When I couldn't get the forum up the first person I thought of to send an email to was Bob Carlucci.... I wonder if we were not the only ones.... Jay |

It's nice to be back.I just finished responding to all the emails asking "is it me?". I don't mind. Hope you folks don't mind I couldn't give a personal response to everyone. After a while I just cut and pasted the info. Thanks b0b, for keeping me advised of the situation. I also checked CNN, there was no "SGF Is Down!" story that I saw.  |

During maintainence I always put up a message. If you can't reach the server at all, it means that there's a system failure of some kind. Usually a power outage or an Internet connection problem. The problem was bigger than just the Forum. The catalog was down, which means no Christmas orders for over a day, and I couldn't connect to my day job which was a major problem for Avery Dennison. I'm still dealing with the repercussions.------------------
