Yes, you are correct in that instance, George.
circle (don't know why, prolly b/c there was a square.cs.jhu.edu somewhere)
cs Computer Science (most likely)
jhu John Hopkins University (this should be correct)
edu (same reason com is at the end of commercial sites and org is at the
end of
organization-related sites)
hence, circle.cs.jhu.edu
I do believe that is correct.
