Looks like TW is having further issues this afternoon.

Based on the link that Wes shared, sounds like someone made a BGP boo boo.

Not that I routed damn near the whole internet down a customers DS3 or anything once, but I can see how it could happen 
and then propagate out of control before it was caught.

I don’t buy that excuse either. If Level 3 is doing fiber maintenance
on any route and takes down your entire network, then you have a
pretty poor backbone design. It is not Level 3s fault if you design
your network such that a single route loss causes a huge outage.
Does the T-Bone run over L3?  I thought it was either owned or dark-leased
fiber and their own routers...
