Well this month they finaly decided our petition was valid and installed ADSL to our little village
As of this afternoon I now have a 2 meg a sec conection...
ooh wee, this is nice.
The old ISDN was only logging in at a pathetic 64k,
the second 64k phone line was a no show,
and I had been told no DSL untill 2006...
The it just apeared out of the blue.
Well I did sign a petition.. guess it worked.
Now 2,000k a sec.
Not bad... made my day. |

I'm happy for you David. I'm so spoiled to cable that if I had to return to a telephone connection I would "unplug" everything and call it quits! Life is too short for that much "waiting".

Yeah, what Gene said!!! I've had adsl for a while now, and couldn't imagine going back to regular dialup. Fast internet connects are the best things since sliced bread! Hmmm...wonder what was the best thing BEFORE sliced bread???

Bread slicers.
Actually most bread here is un-cut, and tastes great.
Except from the boulanger in my village... wosrt in france I fear.
But even in super markest the big loaves and long bread is super.
and I almost never buy sliced bread.
Sp ADSL is loke a loaf of multi grain Bio bread bigger than your head.[This message was edited by David L. Donald on 07 December 2004 at 12:00 AM.] |

Of course " Cake' would translate into english as Hard Tack....
That might more easily explain the revolution. |
