Lets not get to narrow in our viewpoint.

Remember at least David is very active on our list and reacts to what is
being said.

And it wasn't so long ago that we were all complaining that ISP's had

up_front about it all.

And the Dynamic DNS stuff, being transparent to the user, works great.

Course you can tell who my ISP is...
