Yup, and my latest NAT box actually has a "clone MAC address" option in the
setup menu (I think it was the Barricade, but in any case it the new one with
dialup modem backup I just installed after my local DSL provide went belly up on

       That's it for now. Remember to read chapter 11 on the
       implications of quantum mechanic theory for time travel
       and be prepared to have been here last week to discuss...
