A plea: I have received a request from an occasional visitor
to this group to explain the above term. If the originator, or the
person who explained it, would be so kind as to contact me, it would
save me a lot of searching. (I'm about to leave on a 3-month trip and
am feeling slightly overwhelmed!)

TIA

Will you have Internet access during the trip? We'll miss you if not.
Have fun in any case.

It's probably a term from Star Trek intended to sound scientific and
impressive. It appears in a spoof "virus alert" that circulated a
while back; see http://www.mirskyland.com/fun_doc1/fun_0183.htm
The virus is said to "use subspace field harmonics to scratch any CDs
you try to play."
