Really? I would think the opposite. What makes you think NANOG is
populated by "The Little People"?

I mean, I'm one of "The Little People" on this list, and I have an ASN,
two /19s, several thousand customers, over a thousand domains, and NOCs in
different states. Most of the people on this list would laugh at such a
small network.

I would tend to think that if you're using granitecanyon, you obviously
don't have a name server, which means (to me) you don't have a Network in
North America to Operate.

No biggy, I'm just fascinated by people's assumptions and perspectives.
