Minus? Did I read you correctly? A ping time of MINUS few hundred milliseconds? Wow, that is amazing! That means I could implement a "lock file server" which knows in advance that I want to start that application, even before I know! That's so cool! Or one could implement a "typeahead" chat server (a chat server which already writes what I will - or might - mean in a few seconds). The effects on sites such as facebook could be revolutionary!

Oh um... yes, "effects of proxima"... I must admit that I completely forgot them...uh...

"Ask logically"? Does that mean I must be able to great like a Vulcanian, spreading my fingers in this ...err... complicated way, without showing any emotions, not even pulling up an eyebrow?
