The map entry for purdue does not advertise this link, and neither does the map entry for tut.cis.ohio-state.edu. Well....true enough. I confess to a certain laziness with regard to how often and how carefully I update the #U line in our map entry, especially when compared against the relative fastidiousness with which more ordinary (mail) connections are recorded. I suspect similar thoughts apply to Purdue. I tend not to think much of #U lines simply because they are not useful and change much too often. --Karl
