Hear, hear.

Interestingly, back in 1997, $local_ilec claimed they were "waiting on 
the tariff to be approved" for lower ISDN rates.  I suspect such a 
tariff requires filing for any chance of approval.

General observation:  Both cable and DSL are available, or neither are.  
That's empirical; don't ask me for an r-squared calculation. ;-)
