i did try.  to be honest, the (to be polite) broad ranging discussion is
about what i expected.  i thought it worth the try.  the good side is
that it gave so many people an opportunity to show how smart they are.

in the meantime, the noc will work it as best we can.  as google has
already relocated, phones will generally work.  some cdns have
relocated.  as to the rest, you'll have to excuse me if i rofl when
anyone whines that they are in chicago or seoul or whatever.
