CO distance

Helpful review. FYI: CO distance is not SUPPOSED to be 'as the crow flies'. It's an estimate of how long the copper wires are that run between your place and the DSLAM or CO. Sometimes those runs don't take what seems to be the obvious route; they look up the info in a database, and that database is sometimes wrong, and sometimes gets updated. Once you have DSL installed, they can run tests that specifically tell you how long the wires you're using seem to be, as well as other info about their quality. Where I am, in the bay area, the answers are often off by a large margin.
