My apologies Jim, yes, I did hear you but I was also trying to
comprehend and take notes. Your help is most appreciated and I didn't
mean to slight.

Keith,
You also heard me on the call (just for the record). (I was the one
asking about whether the routing nodes would have to operate in hard
radiation environments, which would mean the hardware would be more
performance-limited.)
Thanks,
Jim
