Re: LMAO

I don't need to register to continue a conversation on the internet (ROTFL). Someone your age should realize that.

Your rather myopic and naive comments prove my point. What sort of basic economics were you taught as a 'scholar'(?) Clearly the above poster's logic escapes you regarding how something so basic as providing running water or electricity to an African village could actually affect you so far away.

If you are voting age already contact your local politicians to start voting against the local monopolies who don't want any sort of competing technlogies rolled out. My basic understanding of the limitations of BPL is that the radio interference problem has not yet been adquately addressed, and that the cost/benefit is currently too high to make it practical on any sort of decent scale. There are some useful comments in the following threads-
