Gordon, Small point. The NSFnet backbone service ended on April 30, 1995 (not '94). Rick Boivie rboivie@vnet.ibm.com
commercial internet matured and the federal gov't withdrew. Last traffic reports march 1994!? Of course! This was the month before the last gov't funded backbone (NSFnet) was turned off. Since then the traffic statistics have been the **proprietary** possessions of Sprint, MCI, UUNET, ANS, etc.
