Kent,

No trends to report in Network World, but I second some of your
comments.  Couple months back, NW published a front page article
on SAFENET.  The reporter interviewed (now retired) Cdr Marc
Poland who was the Navy's program manager for the standardization
effort.  The reporter went away with a manuscript that he and I had
written, in anticipation of such events.  The reason the article was
tolerably accurate was that I read an awful lot of what I had
written!  A lot of cut & paste going on.

The current issue (arrived today) has an article on comparing
throughput for various LANs.  I thought I understood the issue,
and can explain it to others.  But after reading this hack job,
I'm not so sure....:-)
