[plug] wow.. hell got a bit cooler today...

[Shayne O'Neill]

Considering I do 90% of my internet inside a ssh terminal with pine with
the odd foray into WWWW world , I could probably survive on 2400 still
assuming I could re-adjust to links browser. I did it for years (admitedly
just not browsing the web, which in the mid 90's I was
convinced was a silly fad anyway)

which is to say I do like my broadband..
