	Ok.  What the heck does this mean?

	BGP updates validated w/ MD5 checksums?
	the BBN S-BGP project?
	my goofy OOB hack that can be used to validate prefixes
	something else?

 	If there is a desire to protect the integrity of the routing
	system, inquiring minds want to know.  Respondents may be 
	pestered with more questions esp. wrt. how to do this while 
	keeping the opex impact low.   
	Private replies please, and will summarize to the list.
