JC,
It was blocked and I did verify it. A very small amount of our traffic
comes in on PCCW and *they* were not honoring a tag that they've
contractually agreed to honor. I can understand why it may be fun to
make this look like a product of my own incompetence, and perhaps it
is something I would have noticed if I wasn't busy responding to
flames.
