We heard here in Eugene Oregon that Verio is pulling back from 32(?) markets to 25(?) 
markets.  The local contracts apparently say something to the effect that the clients have a 
multi year contract but VERIO can pull out any time.
1. Who would present a contract like that?
2. Who would sign a contract like that?
Ohhh well.
