I got yer back Doug
"Not enuf people/households inna sq mile" is what they tol' me when i asked about Mo faster internet. It's just discrimination against those who have land larger than some subdivisions .I got 10 acres, my neighbor has 5, the others have 5/10/200 acres, hence not too many neighbors in my area (which is fine w/ me)
Only had 3 Trick or Treaters in the 14 yrs i've been here (1st yr) since those w/ kids take them to "town" where the pickins are easier, instead of a cluster of homes 200yds apart,and 4 of them inna sq 1/2 mile area.(We still buy candy around Halloween time, but we end up eating it ourselves haha)

Unless i get a 10x forwarded mpeg from someone, or desire to check out a video online, most times my dial up speed is still bearable for what i need.For the larger stuff, i can always check it out at work.(and get paid for it LOL)
