I'm not at watmath, but:

The only full feed watmath exchanges other than with U of T is with
att (clyde, or at least that's what it used to be called) in order to
make a loop through Canada -- it's deliberate, so that if one link goes
down the other stays up.

BUT: Because sahayman@watmath went to iuvax, they set up a simple feed so
that *local* articles (posted within waterloo) go to iuvax, via internet, which
means that they pop through Toronto on the way.   Wasteful when they make it
back to Toronto, but it's only for local articles.
