Great outage of 1997 - Does anyone recall?

[neal rauhauser <nrauhauser () gmail com>]

 I recall a marvelous eighteen hour long global internet outage which I
believe occurred in 1997, but this was before I'd ever touched BGP. Does
anyone have the full story on this? I'm writing on article on the recent
troubles with Supro and my silly editor wants fact checking and all sorts of
stuff like that ...
