Interesting to note that even though the govt is all for getting everyone on the "Information Superhigway", no mention is made of any government sponsored plan to prevent the service from going dark. If this were a provider of POTS, and it was dialtone being turned off, would there would be some scrambling by the govt to prevent it?
If someone turns off your cable modem, are you unable to access the "information superhighway"? I doubt people pitched their modems in the physical sense. -- Leo Bicknell - bicknell () ufp org - CCIE 3440 PGP keys at http://www.ufp.org/~bicknell/ Read TMBG List - tmbg-list-request () tmbg org, www.tmbg.org
