    Heh.  I wasn't confused, I knew who he was talking about but I'll
    throw another wrench into the works as well:  I have a brother named
    Michael Dillon, but he's NOT the Michael Dillon you guys are talking
    about.  In fact, I don't even think he's ever posted to the usenet.

    I have no relation to the Michael Dillon in this discussion.  Dillon
    is a relatively common last name.  I think a number of 1800-1920 era
    immigrants used it, especially from India (dhillion, dyllon, etc...)
    which accounts for my last name and about 1/4 of my heritage.

    In anycase, to be clear:  I (Matthew Dillon) am a kind of 
    jack-of-all-trades programmer & electrical engineer / digital designer,
    one of the founders of BEST Internet, employee of same, and responsible
    for most of the server infrastructure design.  Being a berkeleyite I 
    kinda grew up with the electronics/programming bit starting around age 5.
    It's actually kinda annoying because there are more things I want to do
    then there are hours in the day to work on them.  I don't frequent the
    networking lists all that much myself, but Karl Mueller, another 'original
    employee' of BEST who is responsible for our network infrastructure 
    design does, also of no relation to some of the other Mueller's on the 
    net (at least not that I know of).
