Space highways

Hi Folks,

  As many of you know I run a SJ game with RW physics, but I thought this
might be interesting to the 'puritans' too :)

I have heard of this before, but it has a cool artist's concept graphic.

Some players on the list were complaining 'How can there be so many
encounters in the vastness of wildspace?'.  This could be used to make
encounters more plausible, if there is an incentive to use these highways
through space.
