In the recovered telemetry dumps, Nodes 11-14 have IP/UUCP addresses that don't route through any known terrestrial ISP. Nodes 11 through 14 have blank regional pressing entries in the Ashford Poly archives. When all 14 nodes are synchronized, where does the final relay terminate? -- Matthias Dubois Tape trading list upon request. SASE required for international mail.
