%% A common situation in "life" is to have a configuration file with a list
%% of nodes, and then at startup, all nodes in the list are ping'ed
%% this can lead to no end of troubles if two disconnected nodes
%% simultaneously ping each other.
%% Use this function in order to do it safely.
%% It assumes a working global.erl which ensures a fully 
%% connected network.
%% Had the erlang runtime system been able to fully cope with 
%% the possibility of two simultaneous (unix) connects, this function would
%% merley  be lists:map({net_adm, ping}, [], Nodelist).
%% It is also assumed, that the same (identical) Nodelist is given to all
%% nodes which are to perform this call (possibly simultaneously).
%% Even this code has a flaw, and that is the case where two
%% nodes simultaneously and without *any* other already 
%% running nodes execute this code. :-(
