I am looking forward to that non-licensed packet switched radio.  It
was posted in the eff.news that apple computer was trying to get a
bunch of radio bands freed up from the FCC for everyone to send
ether-net like traffic distances like 10k to 15k on at speeds like
24Mbps per channel.  I should have saved a copy. (woops).

If that Radio thing is allowed by the FCC.  We should beable to send
pictures at rates good enouph to support the picture phones that the
Phone CO. was saying in the 1950's we would have by now.  Looks like
we might just beable to do that with out the Phone CO. in the end.

All I want is to set up a MUD at home without all the modem hassle.
And C&P bills for 20 to 40 lines.  The cable around here will takes
much longer then I hope the FCC will.  And with public radio we all
share in the cost.  I can only hope, that the Big boys with the money
do not mess up a good thing.  Comunication like speech should be free.
At least for the short hall. like as far as we can yell...
