On leased line customers. We require 3 contacts 1 Admin, 2 tech. We also 
give the customer the option. Do you want us calling you at 2:00 AM 
because something is wrong. Some customers could care yet others give us 
large escalation lists. We have electronic and paper copies of all 
information just in case.
