- Oh, the sysadmins have no problem with the patriot server; I
- recommended to Mika that he get their permission, which he did. He
- has helped them find some problems with their system [genuine
- problems, that is]. The only one being hurt over the patriot
- /etc/hosts problem is some loser in California and another loser in

- would be at this if they heard about the displeasure of these two
- people. :-)
