Not strange at all.  Random things like that do happen.

Also, I don't know about you, but my network has been quite unreliable
across regions, oh, once or twice a month.  Sometimes it fails on the
U.S., sometimes it fails on Europe, sometimes on south or east Asia
(and all too often the whole thing goes down locally; thank heaven the
public Internet is more reliable than my university's intranet!)  If
others are experiencing the same, they may just wait 12-24 hours
before reporting a problem.

It's good that you report, but it's not that surprising that you were
the first.  And you may or may not be the only reporter; I would guess
that private reports to me (or an admin-specific alias) outnumber
public reports to lists by 2:1 for the trackers I administer.
