Hey LongON,,, My personal negative was well prepped by RCN's having unapologetically turned NY's best ISP into (erols) the WORST. My "investment decision" is based on the 5 MIT kids who started Interport having been squeezed out and replaced by "Michael." And you. My investment decision is based on shorting that which turns good into sh1t. Sort of like Warren Buffet, who buys what he likes. I refer not only to this billing incident --- but to how everything from DNS, ping times and up times have deteriorated, how it's impossible to reach anyone on the phone (tel. answering machine ONLY in business hours) AND the noble-yet-powerful bookkeeper "Michael." RCN/Interport has turned the streets of NY into the streets of Vladivostok. No Empire Lasts Forever --- stick that in your investment Zhirinovsky, Buster. Now go ahead: tell me that the consolidated RCN Erols/Interport/Javanet, et. al. makes for a tolerable ISP.
