Re: Wanting it a lot doesn't make it a utility I'm sure that folks were saying the exact same thing about electricity back in the day. Hell, you still don't "need" electricity to survive but without electricity, ones immediate surrounding become much more saturated with "suck".
Internet is so engrained in some of our lives, it should get "utility" status. My wife and I telecommute for instance. We NEED a reliable internet connection to continue our way of life. Sounds like a utility to me. |
