I have just added two UUCP feeds and it was very simple to check that
the node names didn't already exist... I just ran uuhost on my upstream
feed, which is on the Internet. This doesn't tell me whether or not,
say, system 'xyz' went up and then died and still has some old links in
the map; but it does say whether there is currently an 'xyz' in the
maps.

A small and very simple step we can all take (or many of us can take) to
insure that duplicates don't happen...
