Hi Mark The Trader. I assure you that I do not want to talk anyone out of using their "good, local ISP provider". Freedom of choice is a good thing!

You ask "How the hell do you think they could double their subscriber base in a year??????"

I offer the following from the latest AOL annual report:

subscribers by year: 1993 - 303,000 1994 - 903,000 1995 - 3,005,000 1996 - 6,198,000

The net additions fell off in 1996 as price competition bit them. Well, I believe they just bit back, in a big way. ;-)

Good luck to all, whatever your choice of net access.

AOL up 1 7/8 today

Brian
