Applying the ISO 7-Layer model:

Physical Layer:  Smoke (signal) traveling through air (medium)

Link Layer: Blanket to induce packet boundaries

Network Layer: Indian Protocol (IP)

Transport Layer: Terminate Custer Protocol (TCP)

(Skipping Session and Presentation, which no one ever uses :-)

Application Layer: Flaming-Arrow Transfer Protocol (FTP)

Please excuse any political incorrectness in the above as an attempt at
feeble humor.

(Who had his 270GB raid array go south this week, taking a year's worth
of financial records with it.  It's been one of THOSE weeks.)

And for the record, we would have killed our children for telegrams or
smoke signals.  We had to bury monoliths near tribes of primates in the
hopes that they would induce evolutionary processes that would lead
someday to someone who could answer our Struts questions...
