UCAID, hop 10-> is a tunnel that it increases latency by ~150++?

There are your 300ms, ISI-LAP* 6bone space. Fortunately in 1 year + 1
day we won't have any 6bone junk left anymore.

Maybe Hurricane and Abilene could simply peer? :)

Sites....

Abilene would be a great travelagency btw, though show you the real

Greets,
