Perhaps we should consider a "tit-for-tat" strategy with query-rejects.  
We maintain a score for other nodes in the network (we could just use 
the CP - although it gives the highest score to nodes about which we 
know nothing), and rather than just Query Rejecting everyone, we try to 
bias our QRs towards nodes that have a lower score.

We need to be careful about how this scoring is done, a node that is 
working really hard but gets overloaded, and has to query-reject, 
doesn't deserve a low score.  When we QR a node, we raise its score.

Comments?
