Buddy, that kind of ticks me off.  Not only is that a cheap shot, but you
don't seem to realize we (Sonic.net) have been donating space and bandwidth
to NBLUG since their inception.  So you've earned a couple of penetrating
questions:

...so for how long have you been CISPA members?

...so how much did you give to the EFF last year?

...so how many NBLUG presentations have you presented?

Seriously, it really peeves me that, somehow, those who incorporate don't
have souls.  Get a grip, pally!

Full disclosure, dude!  Please reply in the list!
