I don't see anything wrong. I'm from Hong Kong, and we are taught that if you do not have enough confidence, staying home and seal the door with wet towel is a valid way.

Most apartment buildings here have >1k people, taller than 40 stories. Having that many people running down the stairs is going to cause some problem, not to mention running down 40 floors do really need some stamina...

But I did mention it! It's the Ethernet splitter. Apart from the terrible speed and sniffing paradise, 10Base2 was a nice solution; no hubs, a single daisy chained cable going around, and adding another computer only required one more splitter and laying a short cable from the last computer to the new one.

I'd gladly give it to you, but you'd have to come by to get it and have a coffee - I'm in Brazil ;-)
