A am very very sorry for you Dawson, is a pity that this is how your life is
going to end is a pity but I will like to give you some chance to help your
self if you will like to.
As you can see there is no need of introducing my self to you because I
don't have any business with you, My work as I am talking to you now is just
to kill you and I have to do it as I have already been paid for that.

Someone that I will not like to tell you the name now but a friend of yours,
came to us and told me that he want you dead and he provided us with your
name ,picture and other information about you. So I sent my boys to track
you down and carry on some investigation on you and they have done that but
I told them not to kill you that I will like to contact you and see if your
life is Important to you or not since there findings shows that you are
innocent. I called  my client back and ask him of you email address which I
didn't tell him what I want to do with it and he gave it to me and I am
using it to contact you now. As I am writing to you now my men are
monitoring you and there telling me every thing about you. So I will like to
know if you will like to live or die as someone has paid for us to kill you.
I am given you a grace of two days to get back to me if you are ready to pay
$30,000 or I will carry on with my job.

WARNING: DO NOT CONTACT POLICE OR TELL ANY ONE, IF YOU DO THAT I WILL
KNOW AND I WILL EXTEND IT TO YOUR LOVE ONES.
ALWAYS BE IN YOUR HOUSE BEFORE OR BY 7:PM UNTILL I MAKE OUT TIME TO SEE YOU
AND GIVE YOU THE VIDEO TAPE OF MY DISCOUSION WITH THE PERSON WHO WANT YOU
DEAD THEN YOU CAN USE IT TO TAKE ANY LEGAL ACTION ON HIM.
GOOD LUCK AS I AWAIT YOUR REPLY.

We've started moving the Burngreave Community Area Network to the Freifunk Firmware on the Linksys WRT54G family using OLSR routing protocol .

Here is a picture of the network topology around Verdon and Rock Street Areas of Pitsmoor

simple article

1. Feed music through a poor analogue connection and massage the connection ( eg manually crackle a bad connection.)

2. Digitally gate some audio .. alter frequency and duration of gating.

found this .. looks useful

From Slashdot

" The internet is a lot like an information superhighway...

No, the Internet is NOT like a superhighway :-) From Usenet, 1994-ish:

"Think of the Internet as a highway."

There it is again. Some clueless fool talking about the "Information Superhighway." They don't know didley about the net. It's nothing like a superhighway. That's a rotten metaphor.

Suppose the metaphor ran in the other direction. Suppose the highways were like the net. . .

A highway hundreds of lanes wide. Most with pitfalls for potholes. Privately operated bridges and overpasses. No highway patrol. A couple of rent-a-cops on bicycles with broken whistles. 500 member vigilante posses with nuclear weapons. A minimum of 237 on ramps at every intersection. No signs. Wanna get to Ensenada? Holler out the window at a passing truck to ask directions. Ad hoc traffic laws. Some lanes would vote to make use by a single-occupant-vehicle a capital offense on Monday through Friday between 7:00 and 9:00. Other lanes would just shoot you without a trial for talking on a car phone.
