Thanks for the Costco description. I've heard commercials about Priceline.com. I've never checked it out, though. About your connection timing out: If I don't want to get timed out, I sometimes put up the Drudge Report and (/or) the NYT in other windows, minimized. They automatically refresh, so it tricks your isp into thinking you're there, clicking busily about. My computer has crashed a couple of times when the NYT was up for a long time, and I'm not yet sure whether it was just a coincidence or not. Hasn't happened with Drudge. drudgereport.com nytimes.com BTW, I mentioned here that we were going to Seattle over Christmas. That trip has had to be postponed for a few weeks. Work intruded.
