   I'm not interested in the onion routing. I do believe that it does   
   what everyone says it does. What I'm asking is does using QSL with   
   the Tor proxy - without any onion flavoring, still hide my IP from   
   the entry remailer? I read years ago that this was the fact.   
      
   I have the question posted in the Tor forum.  Let's see what answer I   
   get there. Unfortunately, that forum is ridiculous. You have a   
   waiting period before your registration is accepted. You have a   
   waiting period for your post to be "authorized".. Then you have a   
   waiting period for any answer to be checked out. The entire site is   
   ridiculous.
