Paladin Press, now you're taking me back... ah, the days. not advocating because as funny as some dude in jeans and a t-shirt firing up a thermal lance would seem, in the end the darwin awards need no assistance. also, i don't want them cloggin' ma tubes! jeez mang. > Really, how much trouble could we get in if we posted up a list of > street addresses, each address being a building that contained > significant telco and/or routing infrastructure? try it, it's amusing. remember the all the photogs getting hassled by the man for merely taking pictures of bridges and plants and such? if you're actually effective at amassing a good database of infrastructure information you'll get the attention you so desperately crave; i promise! :P~ > Probably be some interesting/useful information poking around BGP land > and looking at ASs and their relationships in more detail.
