|What is the Hamilton situation?

  A lot like the Waterloo situation (:-))

  An oversimplification: the sites in the Hamilton area may have to
pay fees to McMaster for the support of the machine and lines used for
the traffic, as well as the ONet fee if they initiate traffic onto the
ONet.
  This may well be perfectly fair, but the sites are understandably
concerned about the costs being commensurate with the service.  $500
plus monthly usage fees could be prohibitive for some.
