    Youve certainly got a good setup, and I have no trouble with using
    yours, if you don't mind contributing some of the proceeds to the Free
    State Project???

    I've got a few other FSP guys in the area who are involved in the ISP
    side of things and are going to try to set up some decent bandwidth. At
    worst we'll have a single dialup or two which isn't THAT bad when it is
    shared, so long as no high bandwidth sites are accessed.

    This was one of my ideas I had: libertarian and transhumanist websites
    cached as well as community forums, email, conference programs,
    announcements, etc: any thing you need to keep a bunch of people spread
    over 140 acres or more in synch.

    All are welcome, so long as you have a pro-liberty agenda.
