Nodes 11 through 14 have blank regional pressing entries in the Ashford Poly archives. Nodes 01 to 10 correspond to US, Japan, Korea, Mexico, Germany, France, UK, USSR, Brazil, and Sweden. When all 14 nodes are synchronized, where does the final relay terminate? -- Lars Moreau -- Tokyo Institute of Technology Computer Centre "Row 14. No joke."
