bright house, not so

more like dark house as the internet connection, promised to be 20mbps and touted to be upwards of 30-50mbps has not given me much more than my 2-3mbps that i got with my att aircard and tonight, there is an inability to stay connected to the internet and limited connectivity, down to under 100kbps at times when it does stay connected...

so i might be moving on to att u-verse next, but since the bright house tech said he credited my account for a month of free service, i'll give bright house another month... i was going to cancel the aircard, but i am very glad i did not do that yet... at least the tech was courteous and apologetic...

try try again...

Dear Mr President

so I wrote to the president...

There is a forwarded email making the rounds about the President and Congress not participating in the new health care plan. My first thought was "why?" but of course, realistically, if you can afford better care you buy better care. While that is rational, the next thought lead me to question the philosophy and direction of America in these current times.

It has been said that American companies produce inferior products, drugs, technology, to sell in the third world because they do not know any better and have no choice but to buy the inferior products.

Is the government, are our elected officials treating American citizens like the people of a third world country?

I understand the health care bill is geared to provide health care for the millions who do not have it, but what feels wrong is that government officials still get better treatment than the people they represent.

If elected government officials had to accept the same health care that all Americans are offered, they would have real incentive to pass a fair and adequate health care plan that provides the best health care in the world for all Amercians.

Unless the leaders of the U.S.A. no longer want to lead the world.


I would appreciate to know what our leaders think about this.
