The fiber link to Fermilab and to our I2/NRL/primary commodity Internet
went down in flames with it. They're working on getting that back up, but 
essentially we have "dial up" speeds right now under 70 kilobits/sec.
We'll be back up ASAP, probably in the next few hours. If it's going to be 
longer, they can take our backup Internet connection, and crank us to the 
hilt, getting everything back up again. Hang tight...
