Try printing the map to Postscript from your browser (Mozilla's print to file does this nicely). Then, use the various postscript utilities out there to chunk it up and print the various pages.
Also, check out the Gimp, it may have something very similar--if you can get the maps to a graphic format like PNG or JPEG.
The point is that the Linux kernel is under the GPL, not the BSD license. Thus, you cannot copy from the kernel code without releasing your code under the GPL as well. Castle, however, is selling a product and not releasing the code...major violations of the GPL.
This could be a major legal test for the GPL, since it never has actually been reviewed in litigation.
I am in awe of the new for() statement. Instead of all that fooling around with the C-style syntax (great for procedural, sucks for OO), they just go ahead and adapt it for collections much like iterators in other high-level languages:
for (String s : c) {//do stuff on s's in c
}
Wheeeee!

Without being patronizing, I think you mean pedantic.
This same thing happened to me as well. I had a POP account for some time, but it got used as the return-address for spam. My only recourse was to deactivate the account with my ISP and find another address.
The real trouble came when I had to transfer my domain to another registrar. Since they have to verify my identity against my email, I was forced to reactivate the account. Thankfully, after several months of rejecting email, the problem of 10,000 undeliverable messages per day had gone away. There still were thousands of messages in my inbox I had to clear (thank God for IMAP), but the account was still usable again.
As a side note, I tried reporting this to my ISP's abuse department, but that got nowhere. I never seemed to find a real person to listen. However, I didn't try very hard--your milage may vary.
Leaving a machine unsecured and unmonitored on the Internet is a sure-fire way of ensuring it is hacked and used to attack other machines. We know this. Yet people continue to do it. They do not secure their machines once hacked, and they allow their own machines to attack others once hacked. This is negligence, pure and simple.
So then if I leave my house unlocked and someone enters and robs me, am I negligant? Moreover, is it right that I get robbed? Blaming the victims for "insecure" systems is just as illogical (and silly) as blaming a woman for being a rape victim.
Whether you break into a computer or house makes no difference. You are comitting a crime.
That said, common sense tells you to lock your doors at night in a city. The same should apply to computers on the internet.
Just being nitpicky, but the interstate commerce clause only give the federal government jurisdiction over commerce between states, not within in them (that would be intrastate commerce). However, the trend in the past century has been to use the interstate commerce clause to expand the power of the federal government even in cases where it has nothing (or almost nothing) to do with interstate commerce.
I'm not arguing your original point that FCC has cleared the way for this ISP (802.11b's frequencies can be used by anyone), just that their intrastate jurisdiction comes from "bending" the commerce clause, not directly applying it.
Ahem. Going back to HS chemistry, water has one of the highest heat capacities of any chemical compound. This means that one gram of water can hold a large amount of thermal energy--IIRC, about 4k J/gram.
In the case of cooling computers, this means that water will absorb more heat per milliliter than just about any other chemical. Other non-conductive chemicals cannot hold as much heat and therefore are not as effective at cooling.
However, 3M makes a particular chemcial which has a relatively high heat capacity (not nearly as much as water's, but more than other non-conductive checmicals). Its drawback is, of course, cost.
