I do not disagree with this notion as respects my proposed architecture. 
3rd level domains mapped to off-world domains works just fine, for the low 
low price of annual domain renewal.  a tld representing each remote world 
is preferable, however, because it is just "cooler;" easier to use and 
more memorable than a much longer domain.  This, however, assumes we are 
talking about the same proposal, which we are not.

Lets be clear here, Marc.  You are talking about a completely different 
solution than I am; one predicated on IP only.  Your comment on this 
thread, without context, only serves to confuse the other participants.

For example, you are talking about using F-root, right?  That is a very 
different thing than the functionality which I am describing, with 
significantly more network resource usage requirements.  My solution uses 
BP in some network segments.  Personally, I don't think your method will 
ever fly, primarily due to security reasons, but I don't troll your 
threads about it in a manner which would muddy the waters of those 
considering your proposal.  I don't mind healthy competition of ideas, but 
I do expect fair play.  If you wish to contrast the two methods, thats 
fine, yet unproductive, IMHO.  Just make sure the reader knows you are 
talking about your proposal, and not mine.
