I also had no idea until I was pointed at this discussion. And I must
confess to a gap in my Net guru-ness. Can anyone explain to me why/how
this can be? I was under the impression that all ip addresses can talk
to all other ip addresses. Is there anything we can do about it?

If there's a list of places that you have that can not reach the Ohio
State site, it would be good to publicize those to the set of people
worrying about global connectivity (primarily, the 'bgpd' mailing list
it seems), and making sure that the credit/blame for incomplete
routing can be properly allocated between configuration bugs that can
be fixed, and policy routing bugs that can be properly complained
about.
