At just after 8 this morning, Wednesday January 6 (not the 5th as I
mistakenly indicated in my earlier message), the CA*net link between
Vancouver and Toronto was upgraded from 112 kbps to 224 kbps.  This
link is not heavily used and the upgrade would not be justified based
on average load.  But it sure comes in handy when our link to Seattle
goes down and we shift the southbound traffic to Toronto to use the 
link between Toronto and Ithaca.  The link upgrade took the link down
for about 10 seconds.
