You're all damp.

Site attcan is indeed AT&T Canada, and they're not following lockstep
with AT&T U.S. It's a major news and mail hub in the Toronto
area, and is one of the two main ways to get UUCP mail from Central
Ontario to uunet. If there still was a backbone, attcan would be on it.

It has been this site's (and a number of others') chief upstream Usenet
feed for some time, and has been reliable and generous of its resources.

attcan has been doing just fine, handling much of the almost 450 votes
which have arrived here on rec.arts.erotica. Please be sure of yourself
before suggesting that attcan is the cause of your problem.
