Nope, that won't work. Satellite communications are only used on thin streams, i.e., low traffic routes. For example, there are no satellite circuits to the UK or to New Zealand. Thick routes are all submarine cable. In fact, over 98% of Australian international telecoms are on submarine cable. I used to work in that field as the Marine Manager for Telstra (now Reach Global Networks - see http://www.reach.com/en/global/cable_sat.php) responsible for maintenance of the international submarine cables (by the use of cable ships - see http://www.iscpc.org/information/ships.htm - for Australian cables, we used the CS Pacific Guardian, the CS Asean Restorer, and the CS Cable Retriever ) If you wondered how we repaired them, see http://www.alcatel.com/submarine/how/index.htm;jsessionid=YO2C1D15R20VSCTFR0 GU1DIKMWHI23GC?alaCSP=null&_requestid=1183726 Ron "romadel" <ameldor@NOSPAMbigpond.com> wrote in message news:WSqP9.11524$jM5.33323@newsfeeds.bigpond.com... > In order for your message to reach all your offended readers, you will need > to broadcast your message via satellite to all four corners of the > world!!!! > "Bugsy" <bugs@humanoddity.com> wrote in message > news:79d2635e.0212252025.3dd73ea8@posting.google.com... > > To all the people that I have offended over many years I offer this my > > unreserved apology.
