Is enough known about the bowels of the telcos - to deduce what they're screwing up re DSL, as they fake it while learning? Ditto cable co.s - who I guess end up also at a telco switchyard (?) Does EZ have a T1? No deal on the hdwre swap, eh? :-) A.

And, all personal feelings aside, if anyone has a faster box and a faster line and wants to host IWETHEY, and you guys want to do that, please just say so. I won't get my feelings hurt at all. And, I have the iwethey.org domain, but I'll be more then happy to allow transfer to someone else. I've really enjoyed being a part of helping evolve iwethey.org to it's current form, and I'll be glad to help it move along to a better home, if available. :) -Jason ---- My pid is Inigo Montoya.

Like most things, I suspect that the provider's competance matters more than the technology; I've heard plenty of cable and DSL horror stories. But, mine's been very reliable.

DSL is DSL have a 64kb fractional T1 potentially available but we would lose "CONTROL" which you have given us. Let me make a few noises here and there but since you have the "setup" cost out how much fractional T1 there would cost, post quotes and I am sure that we could "as a crew" afford to come up with the nut for a while. That we way us'n'all can keep control without the whims and vigours of employers. thanx, bill Our bureaucracy and our laws have turned the world into a clean, safe work camp.
