Also, I've heard that Canada had (maybe still has) this legislation forbidding you to route intra-Canadian *telephone* traffic through another country. Something about else nobody would build a intercontinental coast-to-coast Canadian network, would just send long-distance traffic to the USA, go to other coast and send it back to Canada and being this dependent on a foreign country, that's bad.
OTOH, the spirit of the Bretton Woods conferences at the end of WWII on preventing a repeat was that such critical industrial interdependencies were fundamental to dissuading nations from going to war on one another. So far the idea has worked pretty well, exceptions excepted. Obviously YMMV. -- -Barry Shein The World | bzs () TheWorld com | http://www.TheWorld.com Purveyors to the Trade | Voice: 800-THE-WRLD | Login: Nationwide Software Tool & Die | Public Access Internet | SINCE 1989 *oo*
