   They're more aggressive now, at least where I live (near Kingston). Even   
   had a door-to-door campaign. They're very mealy-mouthed about how much   
   the service costs altogether. I say "can I use my own router" and I   
   don't get an answer that means anything. I say "how many digital   
   channels in HD" and they don't have a an answer that means anything.   
      
   They have 100 Mb service in tiny little towns in Northern Ontario but.

   Fine then, I'm drinking coffee and rolling cigarettes and looking   
   out at the hot baked street and a lady just walked by wiggling it   
   in tight white pants, and we are not dead yet.
