    Now that source routing is becoming accepted, IP gateways are no
    longer guaranteed to provide security.  A host can pretend to be
    a host on a different subnet, but use source-routing in such a 
    way that the other guy is told to route the packet back thru the
    bad guy's real address.  The bad guy of course does not forward
    the packet.

Chuck,

I don't need source routing to do that.  I can do that right now.
