	Cool! Actually, because of the politech article, our machine is 
under some extreme load. We've tightened some of the datasets down, and 
got an amazing visualization technique in our parsing of the raw 
netstumbler data, that will be available as soon as it's done crunching.

	You can see the signals spilling out into the streets.

	Anyone interested, help is greatly appreciated, we've got quite a 
beefy box (and a fast raid). Please email me to drew at zhrodague.net.
