A model for South Africa?

Check this article out - particularly the "wireless internet" section. I dont know whether Indo has the same legal restrictions on wireless network boundaries, but surely this article describes a model for our country?
As it explains, small neighbourhood wireless networks can lead the way by opening up more bandwidth and more opportunity for people to get online...pity ICASA is Telkom's bitch [!]

** How can Telkom claim to "Touch Tomorrow" when it can barely touch yesterday?
Because they're a BIG, GREEDY, MONOPOLY intent on keeping South Africa in the stone age. **

That is a very interesting article, though by the looks of things they dont have the same restrictions we have here, like having to have a license to breath [}]

This is not so far-fetched if you consider that Queen Modjaji brings the rain ... of course you know I'm kidding!

Hmm .. actually, the idea doesn't sound like too much of a stretch compared to the notion, common in many cultures, that to ensure you get rain, you must make 'donations'/'sacrifices' to please some or other deity.

(Sorry, OT ..)
