    I am happy with my current selection of console applications.

    All console aplications are wrapped inside GNU Screen Why did I ever begin? The list could go on forever. grep, ssh, scp, ncftp, perl, sed, wget, ...

    I don't necessarily think it's astroturfing; it's a legitimate problem, and will continue to happen. OTOH, there are possible solutions, not only to this problem, but others as well. DBP, anyone?

    You're in luck. No A/V data flows through AOL at all.

    But the more applicable analogy is leaving your cases of beer on your lawn in front of your house.

    Ahh, so the original argument stands. Think of it like this:

    I leave a case of beer unsecured in a public area, owned by the government, i.e. the people. This wouldn't be my lawn, now would it? Perhaps the street?

    Someone notices a case of beer hanging around, and puts up a sign in chalk on the sidewalk that says "Hey! Beer over there!

    I cannot see a circumstance under which the person writing the sign can be prosecuted for anything.

    Oh, and in response to the hilarious coward with the Night Court reference, I checked with a lawyer on this. His response was that having left the beer in a public place without any security, I would forgive any ownership of such. If the beer was returned to me, I would just be lucky.

    As others have mentioned, your claim is way off base. One of my bands plays a weekly gig at the same venue. We record everything direct to my laptop, which is then cut and processed and posted as mp3 files (soon to be .ogg) on the net from a server at my house here.

    Currently, the disk usage is about 200GB with archived WAV files.

    Just because you don't have a legitimate use doesn't mean the rest of us don't.
