Hi Todd; The artical bears out what I'v been saying all along. except they did not word it very clear for thoes who are not internet savy..and it underestamates the total use only claiming 31 M..my rough estamate is 40 M...some how they don't keep up with all the users that come on line with the independent ISPs. ------------------------------------------ While internet use is up, wehat they are saying ( roughly ) is that the rate of people coming on line direct ( local independent ISP ) is now over 4 to 1, above the people coming on line via a service such as AOL, Compuserve..this is a big swing..and that rate is on the upswing..Direct hook ups ( so many it's hard to track them ) are stealing the Big market share now..people prefer to know who it is providing the service, on a more personal level than the big providers can ever achive, the benifits of having your own local provider is becoming more and more known. AOL sucks. Jim
