   That was counting anyone with a highly directional antenna. :)   
      
   I looked into using cantenna designs to connect distant buildings   
   via WiFi once - you'd need one at both ends in order to have some   
   sort of hope. Plus anyone parked by the road for any period of time   
   out here would be highly suspicous even before you put a big dish   
   on the roof into the picture. Other houses are at kilometer distances   
   away.
