Looks like it's all back up as of about 30 mins ago.
Apparently either a core switch or router failed, which took down much of their network in Atlanta, as well as Memphis and Nashville.
Level 3 has a single router or switch handling packets at a major POP? I doubt this, but the outage is confirmation something bad happened.
