I don't know which is worse- -messages taking forever to traverse the network or receiving the same message twice. Why don't we make all message traffic slow (Electronic Snail) and then eliminate the redundancy feature. Perhaps I should "biff n" to avoid the "Noyed". Maybe we should add a new item to the TCP/IP jargon list: Noyed (n): duplicate message or packet. Annoyed (v): the feeling one gets when one receives a noyed. Merton Campbell Crockett
