...me2, once I have time. Gasification work, I was ready to
come to California to haul a dollar per kilowatthour, now I
suddenly have a crazy britt wanting me to fire his 3 MW boiler,
and a norse and an afghan wanting me to stuff 2.2 MWe into the
grid and my own neighbors, who'll join me stuffing 350 kWe and
pumping 700 kW pool heat. (I have to dump it _somewhere_.)
..on top of that, some upstart wireless isp here, has found he
needs to enforce his bandwidth policy, to _deliver_, sold
bandwidth. So, I setting up his first Gnu/Linux box. ;-)
