have, I would have put a ":-)" after it. I didn't. I am a newbie. I am
still having déja vu.

Hi! Kurt,
did not see that one. I will respond it because it may help you
understanding. I am also a newbie as I only been here since 1977 (on
the other side of the "plug") and _I_ keep trying IETF people to
understand the same thing: there is a real world out there.
The first time I had that discussion was with the first internut to
show up in an international users meeting in Tahoe probably in 1984. I
wish I remember the name of the guy. Could have been Vint from what I
remember, but I think the name was longer.
It may interest you that I am a peacefull person and I want to reach
consensus. But I have Louis Pouzin involved (we both are on Eurolinc
BoD) who you may know. He specified the first "mail" program at MIT,
the scripts, the end to end datagram, the IP zones (recently Vint
recalled the Internet could have been called "catenet" from his
multiple routes concatenation approach - I think is the necessary
future). I am glad he is not active on this list :-)
take care.
