I was wondering when this issue was going to be brought up.  C&W 
dropped peering with several backbones.  I will bet the problems 
started about a week ago.  It might beg an interesting question.  If 
a tier1 drops enough other backbones that are non-transit buyers.... 
doesnt that mean that the tier1 is no longer tier1???  Seems that C&W 
no longer has full routes.

Considering that they have been shopping for a buyer of the company, 
I would guess to say this administrative more affects their share 
value... doesnt it.
