4/27    Someone should put together a mailing list : everybody@earth.planet
        I got something to say I want EVERYBODY to hear.
        \_ I didn't know the new DNS naming system reached inter-planetary
           realms.
           \_ Vint Cerf proposed last year that it should, and there were

alactic cluster]
                \_ invalid <DEAD>hostname.adsl.pacbell.net<DEAD>.us.3rdrock.solar-
                   system.milkyway.localgroup
                   \_ ... earth.sol.rim.milkyway.localcluster ...
                      \_ these two answers combined are right. sol. localgroup
