Good coverage hell!  The October Internet host count found:

	1436750 hosts in the US
	 496763 hosts in Europe

These are *IP* hosts.  I suspect that Europe has a lot more OSI hosts
than the US, and their IP growth rate is considerably larger than ours.

Tell me again about that failure of Europe to join in ...
