Well, I have a lot of old server hardware in my basement, but it's still
nowhere close to the thousands of servers Google has in various data centers
all over the US. They've also got more bandwidth than I do. And - nothing
personal - I'd rather use the bandwidth I actually pay for for important
things like college radio (http://www.impact89fm.org/) or Headkicker II
(http://www.adultswim.com/games/brak_headkicker/index.html) instead of
distractions like full-disclosure mailing list traffic.
