'''How It All Got Started:'''

After reading about ConsumeTheNet on SlashDot I sent an email message to the local Linux users group asking if anyone was interested in starting a CommunityNetwork and quickly found out that a lot of people were interested. Shortly there after there was a MailingList and this web site and I rapidly found myself organizing a local group trying to build ["MAN"]s and ["NAN"]s in PortlandOregon. So far it's been a riot, we've gotten more done then I ever imagined.
