Will do.  I was going to post last night but I was not 100% certain
that the results were during the outage... I want to test over more
than one outage - not a problem since it happens fairly frequently.  I
have to wait until I'm home though... not sure I'll get valid results
over a VNC connection.

Yes, I am pretty certain the traceroute -n gave usable results... but
I want to test a few more times to get a more accurate sample.
