Awesome, that kinda makes sense, tough, given that Tor is THE onion 
router, I think referring to Tor as TOR is still accurate :)

Besides, I never read FAQ sections, it is fragmented IA, as I shouldn't 
have any questions after reading everything else, which, in the case of 
torproject.org, could be less.

Also, thanks for the note, I wasn't able to get past the server time-out 
at: http://www.acsac.org/2011/program/keynotes/syverson.pdf :)

I can get on board with this logic.  Tor it is :)

Thanks guys!
