If it's anything, I'd seriously think about space optics.  Since I'm
talking about a bus, I could imagine several GaAs LEDs (okay, not
lasers) pointing up, with something to diffuse the light and spread it
around to all of the Si CPU chips with their receivers on their top
surfaces. Receive power and packaging was the reason I didn't state
this in my first posting, although I did hint heavily.

Propaganda:
    
    UIUC runs the "ph" nameserver in conjunction with email. You can
    reach me at many reasonable combinations of my name and nicknames,
    including:

    	andrew-forsyth-glew@uiuc.edu
    	andy-glew@uiuc.edu
    	sticky-glue@uiuc.edu

    and a few others. "ph" is a very nice thing which more USEnet
    sites should use.  UIUC has ph wired into email and whois (-h
    garcon.cso.uiuc.edu).  The nameserver and full documentation are
    available for anonymous ftp from uxc.cso.uiuc.edu, in the net/qi
    subdirectory.
