   hahaha... ICM is starting to be used for internet nodes and CM for dialups...   
   slowly... even though CM covers both and ICM can be left out... CM can be left   
   out for dialup if it is not online 24x7 and ICM used for the internet side   
   which is online 24x7... granted, this may not be how ICM is written to be used   
   but i've seen it used like this in the past few years... nowhere near any   
   level of usage to warrant changing the documentation yet, though... but as   
   long as usage changes the documented specification, anything can happen ;)
