[Tracey Losco <tal1 () acf3 nyu edu>]

Has anyone heard of this and is there any merit in its possibility? 
In the code for the worm, there was a "get system time" call...I was 
wondering whether or not it was for computations or whether it was a 
timer....it this is true, it looks like it was a timer....
