	I called UUNET up myself on Sunday.  UUNET is usually down
until 2pm, but this Sunday it took longer.  I spoke to Eric and he
said they were performing a System Upgrade.  This would explain
things.  It went back up at around 8 or 9pm.  It would be nice if
they would have announced it on uunet.general or some such.
