  Thanks Michael (and Adam).  I did indeed forget to update sync-uri.
I subscribe to Netflix, which requires Google-Chrome.  It nags for
security updates every few days, so I'll soon find out how well the
corrected mirror setup works.

  Question:  Can I leave "GENTOO_MIRRORS" uncommented in make.conf?  The
minimal change for my laptop would be...

...when at home on my LAN...

#sync-uri = rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage
sync-uri = rsync://192.168.1.252/gentoo-portage

...when taking the laptop out of my apartment...

sync-uri = rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage
#sync-uri = rsync://192.168.1.252/gentoo-portage

pop-up windows self-replicating, trying to uninstall RealPlayer.  All
those moments, will be lost in time like tears in rain... time to die.
