Sheesh....

Let me rephrase -- the link I was referring to is a trunk circuit
between two MILNET Nodes.  As the MILNET routing is transparent
to the user, you'd find it difficult to guarantee that your
transmission is going via that link.  (Although, using some of the
stuff Dave Mills has done, you could probably detect the fact that
you are using this satellite shot).
