[ih] The UCLA 360/91 on the ARPAnet/Internet



Regarding a second ARPANET host at UCLA, and other places, e.g. MIT: my memory is that a lot of ARPANET traffic was intra IMP site.  

Also, I never thought before where the word "host" came from -- perhaps from hosting some of those "shared resources" that were supposed to be used cross network.
