Yeah, POOF.
We missed you war, Saturday night. Fortunately Sparrowhawk joined in the game and Ming was available early. Otherwise it would have been a bad weekend for CIV.
Well there's a holiday this weekend (for US players ), maybe we can make up for it.

If it's the same provider, I'd expect the same results, unless you're considerably closer to their switch.

Yep, it depends how many people on the same ring are using it at the same time. Most of the people in our neighborhood are older than me and don't seem to use it in the hours I'm playing civ.

Yeah, it's too bad you can't try them both at the same time and see which performs better.

Yeah, they usually suck you in for a year contract before agreeing to do the install for free.

But it is kind of interesting, When the dollar is falling, the paper always lists why it's a good thing, but then later when the dollar rises, the same paper always lists why it's a good thing. DOH.

Ming, please post whether there will be a FNSGS session this week.

I was hoping for a Thurs = Fri bonus session, but I know the BOC thing looms large with you. Have fun, and if you swing by the house mix position, say hi to the engineer for me. (Not that it's likely to get you anything, but you never know...)

Don't know if we're heading back to ming's after the concert. I hope so, but I'll wait for him to issue the invite. I doubt the concert will run much past 10.
