I think so many of us can identify with your thoughts and reflections. As a working Mom of three daughters, I sometimes had doubts, and wondered if I was doing the right thing by working outside of the home. Besides the monetary necessity, I think I needed lots of outside interaction and intellectual stimulation in my life. I was involved in my career in major ways, but I also stayed very busy with activities that were happening in the lives of my children. Running here and running there. It was a busy time of my life and I used to call it "Organized Chaos". Now I have three grown beautiful kids with children of their own, and my former doubts have melted away into satisfaction and happiness. I am the first one they call if they have a work crisis. LOL! And they also dial me when their babies are sick or they are planning a party and need some creative ideas. It is the best of all worlds for me and if I could have a "do over" this is one aspect of my life that I would not change. Thanks again for your post. . Melissa,

Loved the sentiments. Triple love our ISPs. They are the best and most gracious folks ever! Thank you for taking time to visit them. I miss being out on the road myself, but you and Arthur have been great advocates out on the road in my stead and I appreciate you both very much. Neal,

The heart beat of true America, I say. Not many will ever get to experience or see, and we have seen in those markets and areas and many of these markets are very progressive and following the latest trends that are prevalent in our major cites and markets. Many of our clients have even greater challenges around bandwidth and I am proud to know we, in a small way, help and support them.

Your average user is consuming a lot more these days, and then you put a lot more heavy users on top of that. It's not just a few P2P users anymore. Usage limits and usage-based pricing is where it's all moving. So, how is that Cincinnati chili? It’s amazing how the “bandwidth floor” for ISPs has changed in just the last year or so.
