MCI WorldCom has a fiber cut in White Plains, NY, as of 0902 EDT this
morning.  MFS service seems to be decimated, although the Brooks network
is totally intact.

At least one wireless provider (OmniPoint) has no inbound service
available to customers in the area.

No ideas as to where exactly the outage is or how long it will take for
service to be restored.
