While I agree with the point Avi was trying to make I thought I might
point out the little tidbit below:
traceroute to www.psi.net (38.8.64.2), 30 hops max, 40 byte packets
[snip]
7 Hssi3/0.San-Jose6.CA.Alter.Net (137.39.100.1) 142.59 ms 72.272 ms 88.32 ms
8 mae-west.psi.com (198.32.136.23) 145.853 ms 145.555 ms 136.282 ms
9 core.net99.psi.net (38.1.2.10) 208.164 ms 180.217 ms 140.287 ms
10 www2.psi.net (38.8.64.2) 208.077 ms 154.819 ms 220.8 ms
What are the odds that "mae-west.psi.com" is actually a PSI router at
MAE-west?
