Somebody just pointed out to me that the CDA decision mentions SCN 
indirectly.  Hey - we are part of history.

          15.  Those who lack access to the Internet through
their schools or employers still have a variety of ways they can
access the Internet.  Many communities across the country have
established "free-nets" or community networks to provide their
citizens with a local link to the Internet (and to provide
local-
oriented content and discussion groups).  The first such
community network, the Cleveland Free-Net Community Computer
System, was established in 1986, and free-nets now exist in
scores of communities as diverse as Richmond, Virginia,
Tallahassee, Florida, Seattle, Washington, and San Diego,
California.  Individuals typically can access free-nets at
little
or no cost via modem connection or by using computers available
in community buildings.  Free-nets are often operated by a local
library, educational institution, or non-profit community group.
