very much so... i'm personally aware of three or four interlinked (!)
meshes... each mess has one system that is in at least one other mesh and
that system is known as a "bridge link"... its the only way to
pass the messages between the meshes... IIRC, one of the systems in the
meshes that i'm aware of is bridging more than one mesh, too...
