    Here's a link to the Ruby Ridge Internet Cooperative Association.

    Or in plain text: http://www.rric.net/

    It gives a lot of details on the setup and such...

    That link was given in the 2.5-line summary, as well as in the original article, and was immediately slashdotted. Why on earth would you think that we needed to see it again?

    This is almost as redundant as the 10 posts complaining that this topic has already appeared. Of course, while I'm writing to call attention to this 3 other people probably are as well, so this message is also redundant. Sorry to waste your time!

    later,

    I recalled this being mentioned on /. before. Glad to see that they were finally able to realize their goal! Now they can get the ultimate stress-test: a slashdotting :)
