    It escaped!! <panic!>

    I believe that this is the post I made from my point node. I know now that it is connected, just wanted permission to continue feeding my second system rather than having you do it for me from your system.

    Made it to Kentucky, USA!

    Actually probably futher! I was watching the demolition of the old I-74
    Bridge this morning on TV. The bridge itself is down the hill from me,
    about a dozen block. "Channel 8" studios are on the other side of the Mississippi River from me, so let's round to four miles. (Their
    transmitter is about 15 miles away - but let's not get too complicated!)

    So Channel 8 was getting their video feed of the bridge from the Iowa Department of Transportation in Des Moines, 170 miles away.

    So so far I-74 Bridge Camera to Des Moines 170 miles
    and back to Channel 8 Studios 170 miles + 4
    to their transmitter 15 miles
    and back to me 15 miles

    So me watching something a few blocks away really goes around 375 miles!


    And then it gets 'worse'!! I recorded the event on my computer. My ISP is
    in Indianapolis, so add at least 310 miles in there somewhere!

    Some of what we've watched over the years would be pretty mind boggling
    when broken down like that. :)

    Well there used to be the old kids' trick probably back in the 1960's
    where someone in (say) Boston could dial the Operator, ask for the Nome, Alaska, Operator, the ask the Nome Operator to call a neighbour, Must
    have been another step: person-to-person (?) as somehow the neighbour
    had to be told they were being told they were being called by Alaska.
    My friends never did it as we figured we'd manage to get in deeeeep
    trouble!
