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 ...
