I could be wrong (like that's not happened!) but I think the days of DSL for Geo are over. Into the 8th day with, apparently, no one giving a crap that it isn't working. Phone company thinking, "So? What's one rented DSL line worth compared to repair?"

You're wrong.

Of course I can't say it's going to be fixed by this time on that day, but it will be fixed.

Another phone co guy came out this afternoon. He's working the problem and said he hopes to have it done by tommorow.

We'll see.

Well, believe me, I'd like to be wrong! Their customer service is anything but acceptable.

No, we need Narf to get out his megaphone and get the Angry Mob organized.

"Next, in local news, a rampaging mob of angry computer gamers stormed a local phone company's management offices, causing massive damage and tarring and feathering several dispatchers. But first, tomorrow's weather..."

Words, just words - he wouldn't have dared to say otherwise I guess I do not trust these I-will-have-it-done-tomorrow guys more than, lets say, a Quicksilver programmer saying he has tested his programm...

But on the other hand, I *did* say a few days ago that I was hoping for saturday, maybe I should have faith in my own prophecies
