	For customers, we require contact info; once we've been place
	a little longer I'll probably send out periodic reminders (one
	per six months or so, most likely) asking people to check and
	make sure we've still got current information.

	Contact information is also required for peers, but for some
	reason that stuff becomes invalid more often, especially at
	the "big" backbones.  For those, we keep track of what worked
	last time we needed it, and hope it still works later.

	http://www.cisco.com/ -- dig around, the entire text of all (or
	at least most of) the books for the classes you'd take towards 
	becoming a CCIE are in there.
