Biology Lines: 19 I claim that I will be wrong fewer times than the users passing mail through me. In addition I'll be respecting the wishes of those who use the map data to control just how much volume will pass through their sites. Given the following path: bionet!uwm.edu!wuarchive!uunet!maverick.ksu.ksu.edu!deimos.cis.ksu.edu!mccall!tp compared to bionet!deimos.cis.ksu.edu!mccall!tp, which would you think more expensive? I make several checks to do all but eliminate the chances that the mccall at the end will be any other mccall but your mccall. The possibility for an incorrect path if you are registered with the UUCP maps is nonexistant. -- Eliot Lear [lear@turbo.bio.net]
