	Why is it that every single discussion on this list ends up being
Another round of the Kent vs. Marty slug-fest?  Not that it's not fun to
listen to, but for all the bickering, nobody ever answered my question.
I'll put it forth one more time.

	Let's assume I'm connected to NEARNet and get pissed at them and
want to connect to PSINet (not the same pair I used in my original query,
but that doesn't matter).  What sort of technical issues would be involved
in pulling one plug and plugging in the other, without causing any undue
disruption to my users?
