Below is a "raw" description of some problems we are experiencing with our Internet connection. Note that V stands for Verizon. It is also worth noting that except for the 10 minutes this morning that John mentions below, traffic has continue to flow with problems on our secondary connection.

Spoke with tech support at uunet... Our outage is unrelated to widespread problems on the East Coast. Our primary link went down at ~11:00 last night. UUNET discovered that it was a V problem soon after 11:00. V had a dispatch scheduled for this morning and wound up testing in conjunction with ATT. They found a problem at a CO and replaced a repeater at 0330 this morning. This did not completely fix the problem. UUNET has escalated the problem to level 4 and are awaiting a call from V. While the primary was down, the secondary went down at ~0655 this morning - just came back up ~10 minutes ago while I was on the phone with a UUNET tech - he wondered if maybe V was testing???
