You all are happy... for me the _good scientific language_ was the problem too... But all this looks like a joke... Except one idea _we don't use all information keeping by the network masks_. Through it can improve the routing hierarchy, but not the address range (which is from 0.0.0.0 to 223.255.254.254 wit a little exceptions). To increase address range Internet shgould use extra bits for the address, foir example by using two-level hierarchy schema (and it do this - by NAT translation, for example, bits from the PORT field are used as the address space). THe more interesting issue for me is _is it possible to use Source-Routing_ for the hierarchical routing as well? Through if someone translate this joke to the normal labguage, I'll appreciate too -:). Good paper - for the evening hours... Alex. On Wed, 25 Aug 1999, Craig A. Haney wrote:

It needs more than that. After 5 minutes I realized that if this guy was an accountant we'd all be rich...and later thrown in jail after an audit was done.

If someone reads this, understands it, and wants to summarize, I'm sure many of us would appreciate it. I attempted the first two pages and gave up when my eyes started bleeding. It badly needs a technical writer to re-do it. :/

This looks like interesting (and operational) reading.
