 Even if they were, I have a system in place that should take that into
 account. I have each message marked with a sequential identifier, and each
 computer acknowledges messages based on the identifier they receive. They
 also keep track of the identifier of the last message they receive so they
 know what parts of the message (if any) contain redundant information (the
 message may be partially or entirely composed of caches, but there is a
 stanza that indicates how many bytes each cache takes up).

 In theory, this *should* all compensate for data coming out of order.
