Why Drip is better than Bcast:
- Epidemic reliable delivery. After sending a message, Drip will
continually retransmit to ensure that it eventually reaches every
node in the network.
! - Neighborhood Suppression: If a node transmits, its neighbors will
delay their own transmissions. This means that fewer messages will
be sent, as compared to Bcast.

Why Drip is better than Bcast:
+ - Reliable injection: Injecting a message is a dialog between the host
+ and the network. The host knows whether the message was injected or
+ not, detecting and preventing radio failures at the first hop.
