My ISP actually offers such an option (permanent IP etc. so that you can run
your own Web server etc.), but the cost is prohibitive for a purely "volunteer"
affair (it gets into the general area of "serious hobby expenditure,"
[$159.95/month for only 4 Gigs of uploads to the 'Net per month!] and according
to my spousal unit, I've already got enough of those, thanks). ;-)
I'm checking several avenues. We'll see.
