IMHO, dakota-truck.net has a nicer "ring" to it, but I definitely agree
with Mike that org is more technically correct, if that counts for
anything on the Internet these days... Of course, org is supposed to
be for non-profit organizations, which (legally) we aren't. (That is,
I'm not making a profit, (or trying to make a profit) but I don't have a
DBA or non-profit tax status or anything either.) So, I guess we're
wrong either way. :-) We can either pretend to be a non-profit
organization or an ISP. :-)
