Vandersip <address@hidden> Subject: Re: The status of Alden Chris, Their internet LDM servers have not been down throughout the last couple of months, even during the long 3-week satellite feed outage. Curiously, there have been some long latencies from their router to their carrier, bbn-planet this afternoon, but by and large it's been up. The DDPLUS satellite feed came back online around 1930 UTC today. I guess somebody showed up there. --Kevin Kevin Tyle <address@hidden> MESO, Inc. Troy, NY On Mon, 28 Aug 2000, C.
