I'm back with AT&T. I had their DSL service at the tin can. But when I
came here to a "real" house they were'nt available so I was forced to
choose between $cumca$t cable and a sattelite arrangement. Haveing been
in the sattelite business I know all about "rain-outs" so I sucked it
up and went with a cable guys. But, just as soon as AT&T fiver became
availble I told Conca$t to stick their "service" where the sun never
shines. I'm happy with AT&T.

WOW! There are new things I've never heard of. Sweet Potato Butter. Imagine

waffle recipe when I make it.  Vc)=
