1. Looks like alter.net has a problem in Atlanta
Edited on Wed Sep-17-03 04:38 PM by DEMActivist
all pings to several spots there are timing out.

It doesn't appear to be BBV.com, it's the path on the way.

on edit:
20 out of 30 hops on ATL5.ALTER.NET timed out.

2. It's down for me too and I bookmarked them this morning
If anyone knows any experts on this black box voting who lives in the San Francisco bay area please advise! Let's get the word out to the "liberal" media. Thank you.

7. bbv.com is DOWN
I do not have a reason yet, though based on some stuff I saw it may have been a hack or a DoS attack. Massive flurry of viistors around 11 EST and the server slowed to a crawl.

I will post more news when I have it.
