  The Oct 1999 issue of Data Communications (RIP), had a comprehensive
  article about peering:

  They detailed private and public peering (see their tables).  They did it
  using MIDS which did 1.2 million traceroutes from various beacons located
  thruout the Internet.
  
  Very easy to determine who is a tier-1 and tier-2 ISP.

that & the article.author seemed to have 
a penchant for fictional quotes.

but never got a response, few others were

anywhere near as bad as my current cell phone connectivity.
