While I agree that the initial message from the Qwest folks was
excessively terse, and the final follow-on response at best
unprofessional, it certainly wasn't without provocation, IMO..
Likewise, I'd really rather not see a new trend develop here
where folks whop some sales droid and then whine to NANOG when
they're whopped back. Leave it on inet-access, it doesn't belong
here (nor do lots of other things, of course)...
As well, having first hand knowledge, I would contend that a number
of their networking people indeed "have a quarter of a clue between
them", especially when speaking relatively.
