Please reply privately, off-list...

I know this is probably not the best place, but Qwest, being Qwest, if I 
call their main numbers and try to ask about peering, they do 
s/peering/transit/ and route me to sales.  I need to speak to someone in 
Qwest about peering at NWIX in Missoula, MT -- http://www.nwix.org/  -- 
Modwest (my employer) has a decent number of local customers on both of 
these providers networks, and employees being serviced on Bresnan's 
network.  Bresnan I know has IP gear here in the facility, I just need to 
get the contact of someone who has the authority to get them plugged into 
NWIX in Missoula and setup a BGP peering session.

I have a sales contact with Bresnan, but, if Bresnan's network guys/gals 
are on here and listening, this could hasten the process.

Qwest I know has a cabinet with an ONS15454, however, I'm not sure about 
IP.  I'm not requesting global peering for either of them (we're just a 
small content/hosting provider) however I'd like to atleast have Montana 
customers/local customers see us via the direct link rather than having to 
go out one of our transit links.

Thanks again everyone, I now return you to your (err.. quasi?) operational 
content! :)
