Fortunately for me, we've got such good operational relations with our
primary uplink that I don't even have to go outside to get to their NOC. ;)

The problem is that for most sites, "good operational relations with the uplink"
isn't 100% congruent to "uplink has their security act together".  As a result,
you get to have the "Hello, Uplink? You guys get hacked?" "Umm.. yeah" phone
call...
