     I thought about that, but unfortunately no, because I don't have a tor
controller, so I have no way to choose the path.  I suppose maybe I could
force all connections to go through that node by using "StrictExitNodes 1"
and "ExitNodes tortila", though, so maybe I'll give that a shot at some point.
However, it may not tell me anything by now because the culprit, having read
my complaint on OR-TALK, may have stopped doing it until the heat blows over.
If you have a method that's easier to use and not so ham-handed as putting
stuff into torrc, perhaps you could try it and report your results back here.
     Thanks much!
