Just for this message that I sent:

1. Original message sent Monday 12:39 PM Pacific Daylight Time (GMT -700)

2. First response received Monday 7:58 PM Pacific Daylight Time from Cathy
(sent Monday 7:12 PM)

3. Second response received Monday 10:18 PM Pacific Daylight Time from
Richard (sent Monday 4:18 PM) - I am in the same time zone as Richard.

4. Third response received Monday 10:30 PM Pacific Daylight Time from Dennis
(sent Monday 4:41 PM)

5. Fourth response received Tuesday 2:12 AM Pacific Daylight Time from Alice
(sent Monday 4:41 PM)

6. Fifth response received Tuesday 2:16 AM Pacific Daylight Time from Peter
(sent Monday 9:40 PM)

7. My original message that I sent was finally received on Tuesday at 4:55
AM Pacific Daylight Time.


Since Richard is the only person that I know which time zone he is in, I
find it interesting that he received my message and replied to it about 4
hours after I sent it (not sure when he received it). His reply showed up 6
hours later. Then my original message showed up 16 hours later.

Is that REALLY how the Internet works?

By the way, I am hitting the SEND button now, at 9:32 AM on Tuesday, July
04, 2006

That's the nature of the Internet. The routing has everything to do with
it. And, no doubt, the routing has changed since the LUG switched
servers.

I, personally, have noticed huge (multi-hour) delays between sending a
message to the LUG and getting my copy back.
