thanks for the clarification.
in fact, I mean "transport" in an entirely loose sense, and would have done
better to say something explicitly loose like "the global usenet
infrastructure" or somesuch.
One still might take exception, noting that Henry said "edges" but it is
important to note that anything that is prevalent among at the edge
constitutes a defact part of the infrastructure.
