Re: Small Number said by KrK:I strongly suspect that those numbers (the number who can't get broadband) are vastly understated. Now, how many people can't get broadband 4mbps and up? Then the numbers would REALLY jump. Are we really at the point where "able to receive a HD video stream" is put at the same level of importance as access to electricity, or running water? |

No, but we're long past the point where it is as important as a phone line. Or maybe rolling those out everywhere was a mistake, too? |

You can always burn wood to use a steam engine to generate your own.
Such "luxuries". We really should not expect those in the US. If Congo can get by without them so can we. |
