<pre>This sounds great. FT you are a force in bringing back all of these
technologies. I still haven't been able to build it locally but I will
need to experiment more with it.
I really like your views on the <a href="http://agoristradio.com" target="_blank">http://agoristradio.com</a> podcast about
how the bearer technologies fit in with BitCoin.
