Be pretty cool if there was a network of repeaters around the city actually,
with a couple of base stations tied into the net. I've got a fiver, a couple
of old CBs and a rake of insulation tape here to get the process started...

Nah, although I've seriously thought about moving for a broadband
connection - Sweden is apparently dirt cheap, but the cost of living is
crazy and beer is far too expensive for my consumption level - I'd never do
it. Cork's just the berries like!

I know that feeling. Wrote a batch PHP script a few weeks ago to rewrite all
of my zone files, because I've renamed my machines and I've finally got the
names servers on different networks, but missed out a trailing period
somewhere. Messy business, very messy. :)
