Our phone companies are like the buggy whip manufacturers.  They know they
are a dieing industry and are just accepting it.  It's a disgrace that in
the 21st century they are unwilling or unable to offer high speed service
within 2 miles of their central switching station.  I, like many others,
have severed my connection.  I doubt they'll get the message.  I no longer
care.  :-(
