Maybe Cogent refuses to work with Google so nobody can search for evidence
of said cake....

Mainly I wasn’t expounding because I’m surprised to learn that there’s
anyone on this list unfamiliar with it.

Didn’t want to bore people.

I tended to speak my mind while I worked for HE, I’m certainly not going
to stop as a result of no longer working there. ;-)

Sorry all. I misread Owen's email. I'm not trying to air his private
business to the list.

There is no secret - a quick search on the terms HE, Cogent and peering
(and possibly cake) will give you the answer. Presumably Owen is not
expounding because he used to work for HE.

   Speaking only for myself, there are companies where I have done
   short-term contracts, and where I am definitely not interested in
   any further employment opportunities with them.  OTOH, I am totally
   happy to continue to be a customer of theirs.
   Further discussion of that sort of thing would not be appropriate
   here.  If Josh is in the same boat with HE, I totally understand.
   For the Network Time Foundation (and related projects), I think
   we've been pretty happy as a customer of HE, but then we're just a
   small customer of theirs.

   Please forgive any typos.  I'm fighting a failing keyboard on my
   laptop, in addition to having a broken finger.
