AboveNet and Level(3) in Chicago

["Mike Hammett" <nanog () ics-il net>]

Can anyone confirm if AboveNet and Level(3) have added or improved peering in Chicago?  I don't have a previous 
traceroute to compare to, but a new one from my ISP network singlehomed on AboveNet to a server with several carriers 
including Level(3) seems to suggest that.  Traceroutes always included Level(3), but now they're a few hops shorter and 
maybe 20 - 30 ms faster.
