[ubuntu-us-nm] EPC Network

Thanks Dude...maybe next time. =)

On another note.  You have to love DropBox (https://www.getdropbox.com)!
I forgot that anything that is in your "Public" folder can be shared to
the...Public.  Any file put in there has a corresponding public URL.
That said the EPC OpenOffice Draw Diagram doc can be found at....

I've added this to the wireless wiki page.
