I should certainly agree.  But, having been through this before, I know I
have to deal with silly policies which don't apply to all situations.  My
traffic is entirely NE regional right now.  I think I'm being a hell of a
sport by delivering it down to say MAE East and AADS or something like
that.  When I have that established, and someone then comes back and tells
me that they won't peer just because I don't have a West coast presence, I
think that's rediculous.
