Sometime in February Steven Leach assaulted the keyboard and produced:

terms of service

| Can you get a static IP with cable?

| I would rather not be stuck paying for dynamic dns (the free services 
| won't let me use my own domain name).

do you really need a static ip? if you just want to be able to access your
computer, you can use dyndns.org to map your dynamic ip to a hostname. i
don't know how much it costs to use your own host name (as opposed to
bob.homeip.net), but i have to think it's cheaper than getting a static ip.

 What difference does it make to the dead, the orphans, and the homeless,
 whether the mad destruction is brought under the name of totalitarianism or
 the holy name of liberty and democracy?
