This is not the first time or the second that they havechosen to partition.One could also say that L3 has chosen to configure the links they have with Cogent not to pass their traffic, and has therefore caused this current situation. Both of these statements are equally true and possess approximately equal usefulness.
I think Dan is trying to say that since Cogent buys transit, it is Cogent's responsibility to ensure they have connectivity to L3, not L3's responsibility to get to Cogent.
Of course, he is dead wrong, but that's the way I read what he wrote. -- TTFN, patrick
