Those of us who live out in the provinces completely understand. I had a lovely cable modem connection when I lived in town in colorado. Now that I live in the Kansas countryside, I barely have phone service and I'm on the internet much, much less because my computer connection is so slow it makes my teeth itch to wait while a screen is loading.

I see the work guys digging trenches along the main road to the little town a few miles south of me. Maybe cable is on its way. Meantime, I face the same situation as Bluejay -- I don't even have television because the only way is to have satellite and there's no way I'm going to pay for that. I didn't even watch it when I had cable tv.

Do stay in touch Bluejay -- you have my personal email, si?
