This is crazy:
A Londonder made a tsnuami-relief donation using lynx — a text-based browser used by the blind, Unix-users and others — on Sun’s Solaris operating system. The site-operator decided that this “unusual” event in the system log indicated a hack-attempt, and the police broke down the donor’s door and arrested him.
I think Rael is the only other person I know, besides myself, who occasionally uses Lynx on OS X. Consider yourself warned, Rael. ;-)

Hello? Chopped liver here, molding in the corner…
Actually, you’re probably right.

If you don’t already have it, check it out. I know fink has it, ports should, too.
