Nope--just pointing out that Yahoo content is not stuck on the congested pathway in the direction in which the congestion exists, at least until Comcast decides to start sending sufficient outbound traffic to cause congestion in both directions. Just didn't like the portrayal of our connectivity as being stuck behind a traffic jam of other data, potentially causing Comcast users to subconsciously avoid going to Yahoo sites for fear they might be somehow affected by that line of cars. > -- > TTFN, > patrick > > P.S. And does Y! have a route-server to figure this stuff out? :) Not one that the security team would allow me to open up to outside queries, I'm afraid. :( Matt
