I work in a NOC, for a fair sized east-coast-based ISP, and I'll tell you this. TURN YOU CPE BACK ON! All of you that are turning off you equipment are making my new-years-eve a living hell! I can't imagine being at a UUnet, or AT&T right now. Those poor operators have to be pulling their hair out, calling all the down customers. So please out of the kindness of you hearts go to work for 5 min before you go out tonight to get loaded, and turn your crap back on!
