I hear ya!!! AND I wouldnt trade living here in AC for any old high speed internet service either!!! However, that being said, I still plan to look into other alternatives for service. Guess Ms. Campbells post just sort of caught me off guard.....kind of reminded me of my Dad telling me...." When I was a kid, we walked 10 miles to school, winter and summer, and WITHOUT SHOES!!! so dont even think of complaining about riding the school bus of 2 hours a day!!!!"
