So, here's what we'll (my _business_ partner and I - aka, the person at
the other end of the link) will do: form a small corporation that makes
no money, pays no employees, has no tax obligation of any sort, *but*
requires internet connectivity. Nobody is reselling nuthin'. There's
nothing saying that we can't have a distributed office.

heavily wooded).
Don't nobody come around without calling first!
