    Just slightly wrong.

    This spring as I drove to the city every day to work, I watched the progress of a group of Amish men building a pole shed along the freeway. When the finished their work and put up the sign it just struck me as a little bit wrong.

    I'd hate to be the guy stuck with pedaling the generator to keep the server up and running!

      I suspect it is an "English" company that provides an outlet for Amish craftsmen.
      Looking at the site, I see they have Amish electric fireplaces.
