The July 20 'harvard' map shows harvard!linus to be DEAD.
With that and delete {mnetor}, the uucp route to utzoo
now appears in part as follows:
	harvard!spdcc!linus!utzoo
and the path to ontmoh is
	umix!uunet!utai!gpu.utcs.toronto.edu!ontmoh

When I delete {linus!utzoo}, the path to utzoo changes to be
	uiucdcs!sq!utcsri!utzoo

Carrying this on one step further, when I delete {uiucdcs!sq}
the path to utzoo changes to be (in part, again)
	umix!uunet!utai!gpu.utcs.toronto.edu!utzoo

Comments are welcome.  I would prefer to go with the uiucdcs!sq
path to cross the border, since all of the hops in that chain
look sensible.

If anyone in the Toronto area is capable of running 't' protocol
uucp over a TCP connection to NSFnet and is interested in making
a connection, contact me and I'll approach the appropriate folks
here to be sure that it has approval from our network folks
