Re: 60 Day Termination Notice (fwd)
We've already ordered a backhoe - we figure we can take out the T3 and bury the ENSS at the same time :-)
Don't you need an environmental impact statement for the EPA first? I'm sure they wouldn't be overly pleased... :-) Saen.

If I remember correctly, there is a museum that still has a few IMPs running, just for the heck of it. To do justice to the impact the ENSS-es have had, maybe a (now superfluous) ENSS might go this way too? Geert Jan

I still have the LSI-11 box (no cards in it, though) where I generated almost all the Fuzzball software for the 56kbps NSFNET backbone on prior to distribution to the nodes and after getting the updates from Dave Mills. Hans-Werner

It would be nice is someone got some photo documentation of what remains of this infrastructure before it's torn down so that someone can HTMLify it someday. Does anyone know if Internet Talk Radio or anyone else has attempted an oral history of the NSFnet backbone? -KwM

And here I went and got rid of all my Fuzzball software... Wait! I might have in on 7track tape.... :-) The first UofMn IP link came up between a 11/23 and a 11/40 running Fuzzball... -- Joseph Thomas E/Mail: jpt@msc.edu Minnesota Supercomputer Center Tel: +1 612 337 3558 1200 Washington Ave So.

I still have original floppies from the 56kbps dist. What were they? 8"?
