I have a list of people that I usually point to for

So I have a point in:
London
New York
"New York" is actually "Ashburn, VA", or greater "Washington,
DC".
@Brian is welcome to connect to me and Peter Lothberg (we both have VPS'
in Ashburn with fat pipes) with a cost of 7, as backup links.
/s.
San Francisco
Russia
Colorado
Perth
(And me in Sweden)
If there are more that are willing to act as connection points, and
have acceptable network connectivity, and is owning an area, feel free
to let me know, and I'll add you to my list.
