i may have been the last satanic phyltre nazi to do that.  it collapsed
under financial pressure from sales and marketing within months of my
leaving verio.

in today's and tomorrow's world it will collapse under sales and
marketing pressure as soon as someone big enough announces a /29 and
starts calling folk well above your pay grade.
