As a comparison I would say that Mooneschadoweshire is probably the most 
net-connected group in the Kingdom. It is only with *extreme* difficulty 
that I can even think of people who don't have e-mail. Of course, we 
have certain advantages that other groups don't have. Everyone who works 
at the university can have access by request (if they don't 
automatically get it with their job) and students automatically have 
access. And most of the rest of the members either have computer access 
at their jobs (quite a few computer related businesses here in 
Stillwater) or else they have access through a computer server to their 
home computers. IMHO, it just seems strange and unnatural *not* to be 
net-connected.
