One routing path lists: 'cascade!transat!orbit-01!stardust'. Orbit-01? Are four of the relay nodes located on satellites? 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? -- Tyler Smirnov "Measuring a record you own is listening, not piracy."
