I was talking to our net provider today who's been talking to Savvis.  Apparently, there's been a lot of denial of service attacks have been taking place in the DFW area that have been going on for awhile.  Savvis is doing what they can, but I don't know much more about it.

I have some really good contacts for bandwidth/hosting in the Dallas/FtWorth area.  Contracts which would include Service Level Agreements that would guarantee certain levels of uptime.  (See my email from a couple weeks ago...)
