Although I rarely find analogies useful when trying to explain something, I want to use one now to see if I understand this. Let's say you rob convenience stores as a career choice. Once your deed is done, you need to get away fast. So moving fast is a real help to criminals. Since moving fast is rarely helpful for decent folk, maybe we should just slow every one down - this certainly would make it easier for law enforcement to catch the criminals. If the above is not an accurate analogy to the NS fastflux issue, I'd like to know what the deviations are. I don't doubt there are any, but from what little I've gathered, the problem isn't the NS fastflux but the activity that it hides - if it is indeed hiding activity. As in, not every one speeding around town is running from the law. -- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Edward Lewis +1-571-434-5468 NeuStar Sarcasm doesn't scale.
