From ARNewsline #1476:

THAT FINAL ITEM: THEY CALL IT BGPL

And finally this week, another player has entered the broadband access
arena. A a San Diego, California company called Nethercomm is
developing a
way to use ultra wideband wireless signals to transmit data at
broadband
speeds through natural-gas pipes. Jim Linton, VK3PC, has the rather
strange details:


So just how will they the fifty feet of plastic gas pipe between the
main line and my house to act as a conductor or wave guide?


This was floating around here about two months ago.
It is determined to be a hoax.

You're heard it debunked here first!

Still, somebody put some thought into that website even if it is BS!

They must have a lot of folks fooled, a google search on Nethercomm gets
a lot of hits.

I would think many people would read this then go straight to a websearch to
see if its true. Then if there's a website out there they believe it. One
thing comes to mind, electronic signals down a gas pipe.. KERBOOM.....or
doesn't it work like that ;o)

Regards,
Graham
