The report is that the fire started as the result of an explosion in a power room at the CO accidentally caused by an AT&T crew working there. Apparently -- and you can't really blame them -- everyone on location split the scene pretty fast when it started. Some critical parts of the network, including the Priority Repair office for the region were knocked off line. Several long distance carriers are reporting inability to process traffic through Los Angeles and the affected area. PAT
