   That's fine. 99.99% of the people out there don't even *know* what you   
   know, for example.   
      
   But, for those who both know and care, then we (those people) can work   
   together.   
      
   Besides, I'm just asking as a thought experiment, would it work?   
      
   Would it work if we all did these three things?   
      
   1. Set our SSID to the same ssid (e.g., DEFAULT_nomap).   
   2. Set our MAC to the same MAC (e.g., DE:AD:BE:EF:CA:FE).   
   3. Set a very strong passphrase ('cuz we'd need it!).   
      
   Would that work?
