There is little application for ZONEn-=N routing for mobiles,
since mobiles move.  The only use of ZONEn-N routing for a
mobile, might be for a widely traveling VIP Communications VIP
official who's responsibilities cover the entire ZONE.  In this
case, since he is so important, and his position needs to be
seen throught the zone by everyone else in the official ZONE
communications cadre, then he might use ZONE5-5 so that he can
be seen everyehwer in his official ZONE area, without QRMing
other zones when he is on the border.

But in general, most mobiles are not these VIP's that need to
flood their ZONE with all of their mobile packets.


The typical mobiel would use a 3 hop WIDEn-N path or 2 hops if
there are more than 50 or so users in the area...
