. . . could I do something weird like bring up

message cache?
I'm doing this on a remote network. See my note to the list of 20141226 
for the long version.

The short version is:
  Run msgcache on a system
  Clients near that system can report to it
  Use PULLDATA on a remote system to retrieve from the cache

Watch out for:
  Port not performing as specified (1984 only)
  Passing data unencrypted across the network links
  All message types are passed
