Hi Jim. Thanks for the clarification and the expansion that included those additional references. Much appreciated. A housekeeping note I should mention: The condition earlier today affecting SI URLs, whether it was real or imagined, seems to have cleared up. IOW, I'm now able to send a URL for a specific message via email and it works in the manner expected once its received. There's no need to download a copy of Haystack, as I earlier quipped in the last paragraph of #msg-25775484 , after all. Sorry for the confusion. FAC -----

[Canada FTTH] New Brunswick cities to have fastest Web in Canada Simon Avery \| Globe and Mail \| Jul 15 2009 Bell Aliant plans to run fibre-optic cables into every home and business in Fredericton, Saint John. Fredericton and Saint John will have the fastest Internet connections in the country by the middle of next year, following news of a $60-million plan from Bell Aliant Regional Communications Income Fund to run fibre-optic cable into homes and businesses. The investment will mark the first time that a Canadian phone company has deployed fibre-to-the-home for an entire city. In other urban areas, the telecom operators have deployed fibre to neighbourhood nodes, relying on traditional copper for connections to most customers. The rollout of fibre to about 70,000 homes and offices in New Brunswick will give Bell Aliant the ability to offer download speeds at least 20 times faster than the industry norm today, allowing users to download songs and short video clips almost instantaneously. Analysts say the company will be able to operate the new network at a fraction of its capable speed and still be the most competitive service currently available.
