	Its much easier in Japan. (excuse the rant ^^;)

Japanese ISPs are:
	congenitally incapable of:
		responding to postmaster mails.
		taking positive action against spam.
		taking positive action against credit card fraud.
		unable to comprehend paying for loosenet
	spam havens.
	clueless.


	Still, the other week, we worked out how long the engineering
	department could stay drunk on the cost of 64mb of cisco ram.
	(That's 7 alcoholics, remember Suzuki counts double)

	Based on this, 1 Typhoon license would keep us intoxicated for
	about 35 days. (~130yen/$, 10 cans/day/engineer, ~300yen/can
	and a discount for quantity, or a 15l/h peak delivery rate
	lease-beer-line ...)

	Next month, we plan to upgrade to a  30l/hr leased-beer line
	(remember, you cant keep beer, only lease it) and an all
	new switched-beer-router! Capable of delivering a full 30l/hr
	direct to Suzuki!
