I run my own servers on the internet and I like being able to do as much with them as I can. I run web servers, email, DNS, IRC, forums, remailer, nymserver, streaming audio! torrent trackers! Oh My! Needless to say, the shit would hit the fan around here if my internet service provider started blocking me from doing what I do with my internet connection. Some ISP’s have already begun to do so.

Well, Obama was the only candidate on board with my concerns so he won my vote easily . Today I am feeling a bit reassured that I made the right decision. Obama started a new way for the government to keep in touch with us, change.gov. Within two days of the election Obama’s transition team laid out his science and technology agenda. I must admit, I am somewhat impressed. :)

At a speech at google headquarters Obama raised the issue.

Good work Phil :)

Back at the end of ski season the ski mountain took down the discussion forums they had running and just blew off the contributers.. So, I set up steamboatforums.com to fill the void.

It is now four months later and the local newspaper has made it more difficult to post on there website, asking for users to provide there identity (um, wtf?). Creating an even larger VOID.

Being a proud free speech loving American I was very excited recently when many of the local online fanatics chose to join up at steamboatforums.com and start sharing. If you read my crappy blog and haven’t hooked up at steamboatforums.com you may find it entertaining. Thanks for making it worth my time.. Locals kick ass, Keep it real!
