   The problem with remote (rmt) is that the reference could be
   local. The use of far (farCar) in the Walnut conventions had the
   same problem -- since the car could be local, the use of far
   differed from what was defined in the taxonomy.

I have sometimes used the word "distributed" to mean "either local or
remote but we don't know which".

distCar ?
