	thank you for stepping out on to the slippery slope.

	lets presume I am based in Kamatura Japan.  I have work associates in
	Oxford England, Palo Alto & Santa Cruz California, Family in West Virginia,
	and teaching assignments in Korea, China and Mynmar.  

	Is there any reason why - given the rigid nature of peering and cross connects
	that I should care about fiber cuts that take out most of Sau Paulo and 
	all of Norway?

	I have "everything you need to make this work".  I have no need of Brazilian 
	or Norwegian infrastructure.  They are not critical to me.
