What IS known as FidoNet (1:138/142 here. :) ) and it's still a political
shit-show, mostly due to people from Zone 2. *sigh*

What I've often wondered is why there are so
many IT people with the
same sort of laments and we haven't all collectively built our own
networks over wireless ?
The crazy patchwork quilt of regulations applying to amateur use of
radio spectrum, is my guess. Now, I would add the depressingly high
chance of being invaded by the masses if/when we build something big
enough to be useful. We've already built one network only to have it
invaded and overrun; why would we expect anything different to happen
to the new one?
