|  DUMB!
This is the dumbest idea in the world. When was the last time you grabbed your laptop and went for a 10 mile walk? ...and you can't really drive 1 mile per hour while trying to avoid collecting pedestrian killing points AND trying to find the damned chalk marks at the same time. The French are snotty, The italians have good food, The Germans - good porn, and the brits are full of dumb ideas.

For some geeks, it might finally pull them out of their mom's basements... and you have to agree that all that exercise is a good thing, right?

We're supposed to avoid the pedestrians?

That's why we have netstumbler and gps! I can get ap's doing 65mph on the interstate and log plenty of them, gps will do the pinpointing...who needs to mark them for others when I can keep them for myself...

| Exactly. I never quite got the point of the low-tech warchalking idea. It always sounded a little bit like a gag. (What's the least efficient way to find wireless access? Let's use dissolvable chalk and have our users walk around aimlessly hoping to notice it.)
