 In response to Herb Lin's note.  It *SURE* would be interesting to see 
 what the NSF is going to do with its allocation.  Pay the backbone bill 
 for starters I'd guess.  Then there are subsidies to the mid-levels .... 
 pay those.  then some new connection grants probably.  And maybe even the 
 new network information center.  Wasn't the solicitation for the NIC 
 published almost a year ago?  I know the public info meeting was last 
 June.  I wish Steve Wolff would comment on where this stands.  People have 
 told me thtdXP>|UF*?Z_at t
 
 (that was a lightning bolt about to stike me down I guess, anyway people 
 have told me that most decisions on how to spend are made within the feder 
 al networking council.
