Since the article was brought up, I'll pick a nit: On page 83 it says "..each node "bids" ... on network parameters such as the THT (Token Holding Time) ..." This isn't correct. THT is determined when the token is captured on each token revolution. Not a biggy, but everytime I read something like this, I wonder how much other misinformation I get on subjects that I know nothing about. tony
