<<Moving on, I want to start putting all that extra money that we might maybe have at some point in the future but don't have yet back into Social Security, hire lots more teachers, build lots more schools, pay for everyone's babysitters, give you all a brand new shiny car, and stop that annoying global warming I keep hearing about. You can pay for all that with the extra tax you will pay when the wife gets a job. (That's where the babysitter comes in.) Thank you very, very much. (applause, standing)>> Sounds like you're running for president? <VBG>

*OT* <WAY short> Ahem. Uh...well, let me just say that I cannot comment specifically on these allegations of discrepancies regarding size and speed. It appears that my technical advisor, Mr. G., is better at hooking up gear than he is at basic math, so I have drafted a harsh reprimand which I am confident you will pass. (applause) Pete, First a big grin<G> Cable modems are typically 10mbps so we agree:-) The T1 you had would have a max of 1.55 mbps. You only have a 645% speed increase. The pres with all the great things he will do. Well....hmmmm I have to keep with Terms of Service LOL:-) Glenn
