Internet isn't practical here at the moment, hence I"m plain ol' modem on a
phone line only. My nc is internet only, no pots, but we've arranged
intermediaries that work most of the time <g>. We've worked rather well
together on this in fact, so there's no problem there, but as Ross notes, makes
it a problem for routing tables.


Still wonder if nodes such as myself and others who are not internet capable
should endeavor to fly the ping flag to help those building routing tables.
