   I hear ya.  You know what they say, it's easy to beg for forgiveness than ask   
   for permision.  Put it up man.   
      
   Do you have any message net's setup?  BinkD for Amiga run's somewhat stable   
   and CrashMail's key is in the wild.  I run a somewhat underground message   
   network called SciNet (http://hysteriabbs.com/scinet) might be something ur   
   users would be interested in.
