You were supposed to get a can of holy Tecate from Jaime to bless it. Or
maybe you drink it and then piss on the plant. I forget.

Thank you Mitch!
Being one of the owners or MidWest-IX I wanted to address this
then someone please kill this thread.
1.I am not sure who Eric Kuhnke is. We have never had dealings
with him nor have I ever spoken to him except on Facebook. Not
sure what got under his skin but he has a major issue. It’s kinda
creepy.
2.The photo is of the Westin Building meet me room. It’s kinda
hard to miss that.
3.The photo was purchased from a Stock Photo site when we created
the new version of midwest-ix.com <http://midwest-ix.com>. I
still have the receipt as part of business expenses. It was given
with a limited license. We could use it on a web-site and in
limited usage. It was not an exclusive license. I believe the
site is stockphoto.com <http://stockphoto.com> and they were
responsible for the license of the image.
4.In no way do we represent the photo as being our network. It’s a
photo for crap sake. By design, we do not own data centers.
Nowhere do we say this is out data center our our meet me room.
If it was a random photo it would not be used. If it hadn’t been
bought from a stock photo site it would not have been used.
5.We are not Missouri IX. We are MidWest-IX and FD-IX. We are not
just in Missouri. We are in many places not even listed on the
web-site for one reason or another. Nowhere do we imply that is
our meet me room. Any implication is a totally subjective to the
person viewing the room.
And here is the most Important thing of all of this!!!!!
6.How do you know we don’t have a presence in that room? Have you
ever had the courtesy to ask us before assuming? How do you know
we do not do business with the Westin Building and it’s tenants?
How do you know if we have had any conversations about the meet me
room and the photo with representatives of the Westin Building?
One of the folks from the Westin was at WispAmerica this year. Him
and I sat down and talked and I even showed him our web-site.
Done and Done.

Share with you a related story....
I was in a Conf. room of one of our Colo Facilities Providers,
they had some pictures on their Conf. Room wall, which all were
nice.. but there was one picture that caught eye and appeared to
be very familiar.. it was a picture of cluster of antennas
mounted on the roof of that facility...
Upon a closer look, I recognized that that cluster was our
antennas ! ... so instantly two emotions came to mind... one was
.. Hey that is a nice picture ! I know to whom that stuff
belongs to !... and the second... How dare you take pictures of
my equipment and hang it your conf. room (we don't buy roof
access from them) !...
To me personally, the former feeling overcame the latter
reaction... and I actually felt proud of our little Cluster that
someone viewed presentable enough to put in their conf. room.
Having said that.. if you are not the copyright owner of the
photo.. then why does it bother you at all ? Hopefully you
should feel proud that picture of an actual facility you know is
being liked by others and being promoted on the net...
and that is IMHO !
Of course everyone is entitled to their opinions and your
mileage may vary !.

I am not the copyright owner of the photo in question. This
is only a request.
Please stop using the photo of the Westin Building 1901
fiber meet-me room to advertise the Missouri IX.
Property owners and ISPs in the Pacific Northwest have spent
a great deal of time, money and effort building traffic
exchange infrastructure.
In my opinion is not an accurate or factual depiction of
whatever facilities may currently exist in Missouri to use a
photograph from a carrier hotel in downtown Seattle.
