[GreenKeys] ARPAnet now 4 nodes

[Bob kb8tq]

Hi

ARPA net was way past three nodes by 1974. There are maps on the web of how
it expanded. Another way to dig into it is to look up the BB&N IMP (the original 
way to get on the net …).

If I was to join ITTY as has always been my intention (but as a "glass" operator, I'm afraid) would there be any interest in these bulletins?  I've attached today's issue as an example.
