Oh yeah.  And other folks don't even see the problem.  Annoying little devil,

Did I say that?!  I don't remember saying that.  I don't understand TCP/IP
deeply enough to make a statement like that.  I wonder if the high message

Well, I embellished a *little*.  And interpreted "net clog" as "clogged
router".  And forgot to re-iterate the possibility of multiple issues.
