especially if there is a north-westerly wind...  It may reach NZ, ofcourse, 
but likely the gas will have leaked by then and it'll become an underwater 
wireless node in the Tasman sea... If it floats and you did it often enough, 
you could probably connect an IP tunnel to wireless groups in NZ... then 
again, if you did that many, you might be able to _walk_ to NZ...
