Subject: [COFF] ARPAnet now 4 nodes
Date: Wed, 4 Dec 2019 20:19:40 -0800	[thread overview]

I'd love to know the order of nodes joining and how that was scored.
I've been told that UW-Madison "was the 11th IMP on the arpanet" but I'm
pretty sure that is not true.  My guess is that there are the original
IMPs that were arpanet, then there was an expansion to educational sites
and Madison was 11 on that.  Or something like that.

Anyone know?
