    On 2018 Jul 03 11:12:32, you wrote to me:   
      
    BP>>> you are still connected to dead ubuntu ?   
    ml>> no, you reconnected it with your link message...   
      
    BP> i dont understand it yet   
      
   you have hubs and and you have leaf nodes... the leaf nodes remove dead   
   echos... the hubs remove dead echos... some hubs are connected to other hubs   
   for ALL echos... even new ones being newly created... you send a post in a   
   dead echo that doesn't exist and it is automatically (re)created on upstream   
   systems... this (re)creation continues on up and down the distribution   
   stream... some hubs or leafs do not allow auto-area-creation... some do allow   
   it... then you end up with separated puddles of systems with a dead echo that   
   was removed and then added back because someone posted a silly link test   
   message in it...   
      
    BP>>> why blame me ?   
    ml>> because you did it...   
      
    BP> how ?   
      
   see above... every time you do this, you reset the counter on dead echos... it   
   is not a GoodThing...
