I have seen discussions here before about time warps whereby an article
could get from one coast to the other several hours before it was posted
but the trans-atlantic link has now got that beaten by a mile.  The 
following article arrived here on 10/24 after having passed across the
Atlantic and through several sites (not all of which are known for
passing the news along in a timely fashion).

Not bad huh?  Passed through seven other sites and STILL got here three
days before it was posted.  I suppose that the folks in England will
probably say that they always knew that "the colonies" were a little
behind the times!
