Hence, Edge's akamai solution that circumvents that with capitalism.
And what, beside Shipman's interest, about Puna is capitalistic? I don't think anyone's making anything on most of the money that changes hands in Puna.. illicit drugs and unregistered guns are not taxed.
As to Shipman.. do yourself a fav.. go find a copy of Emmett Cahill's The Shipman's of East Hawaii. It ain't a 'page turner' but does shed a light on that families intent.. which isn't your's or mine. And leaves little doubt they're working on a different time scale entirely.
