I thought it was strange that the following article went to mailrus first, then to jarvis. Could watmath be using NNTP over Onet to iuvax? If that's the case, why not talk to jarvis instead? watmath feeds locally generated news articles to iuvax ( Indiana U ) via UUCP/TCP. This will probably change to NNTP *real soon now* ( You hear this Steve ? ) The site 'orchid' you saw in the path is at UW. Very soon news feeds here will be re-arranged alot, before I leave in 2 weeks to live in Switzerland. Hopefully most of the internet connections and local news feeds will move to other machines instead of poor watmath ( whose &*%^*%* load average is around 10 right now at 11pm ) -rj
