I just noticed an annoying ethernet redundancy and I can't figure how to get rid
of it.  Or maybe I'm not noticing anything and I'm just crazy.  You tell me...

# netstat -rn
Kernel IP routing table
Destination    Gateway     Genmask      Flags  MSS  Window  irtt  Iface
(my isp)       0.0.0.0  255.255.255.255  UH     0      0      0    ppp0
(my network.0) (my ip)  255.255.255.0    UG     0      0      0    eth0
(my network.0) 0.0.0.0  255.255.255.0    U      0      0      0    eth0
127.0.0.0      0.0.0.0  255.0.0.0        U      0      0      0    lo
0.0.0.0        (my isp) 0.0.0.0          UG     0      0      0    ppp0

Okay, why am I eth0'ing thru my localhost ip (2nd entry) to my network? 
Obviously I need the 0.0.0.0 to my network (3rd entry), but isn't #2 redundant?
 If so, what are the ramifications of it being like this and how do I fix it? 
I've tried route del'ing, but all i get is:

# route del 192.168.0.0
SIOCDELRT: no such process

Any suggestions/explanations would be much appreciated.

ps: I have a copy and have read the Network Administrator's Guide, so if you
know where to send me in there you can just give me a chapter or page number
instead of typing it all out yourself.
