It could be a little difficult to do that.
Anyway, it's amazing the number of people think all you do is plug the router in and tada, instant internet nothing else to do.
I run airsnare and net stimbler every once and a while. Actually, run airsnare quite abit to record anyone connecting to mine. Though I have mine setup with WEP or whatever it is called and mac. Have my pci card setup as AP only (no peer to peer).
I've been picking up a computer to computer connection lately. I bet someone just got a new laptop with wireless built in, and will never use the wireless.

Even if I wanted to, I don't have any neighbors who are close enough for me to leach off of anyway.
