A bit more info from a West Coast source.....Verio is doing an across the
board downsizing. All their operations are expected to meet some corporate
"revenue per employee" size. When you are bleeding, this is the quickest
way to stop the hemorrhage. Dave Vrona had no choice in the matter. This
must have been difficult for Dave because he really does care about his
people. 

To be accurate, some on the list (Dan Cross and Rich Nuttle) resigned just
before Friday, but they are not being replaced. So the bottom line is still
reduced headcount.
