It might also surprise people to know that many "more civilized" areas
of the US have limited speed (but I don't know what that has to do with
this thread). My wireless is 30K down and 256 up. Dialup/backup is
21.2 at the best. Cable/DSL, non-existent. Not everyone lives in the
city.
At least you take the time to properly change the subject and edit out
the extra stuff not pertinent to the thread. I hate it when subject
says Re: Digest #xxxx, etc., and has 500 lines of non-edited content.
