This is true in a sense. Nero is the primary ISP for much of the local gov infrastructure. It's primarily the service provider for OWEN which includes the U of O, The State of Oregon and the local K12. RIS ( Regional Information System ) which hubs a lot of the local governments uses NERO and so a lot fo that traffic at the bottleneck flows through NERO ..some equipment is at the U of O.

I dont know the details of how all the little agencies fit into NERO.. but its a big map ( http://netfoo.nero.net/cgi-bin/netviewer.cgi ). I'm pretty surprised at all the info this page gives out in a post 9/11 world. . If I was a foriegn government with a multi-million ducat budget to launch a wide scale cyber attack this would be an excellent training ground.. poke and see instant results. :/

Many years ago, when volunteering at OPN/EFN, the libarary and OPN/EFN shared a booth at the Lane County Fair... While volunteering, I talked with the lady (cant remember her name) from the library, they had setup the internet access, and she said that they (the library) had fiber provided by the university (which was the internet access we used at the fair).
