I couldn't agree more. The problem is that the two side's idea of what
constitutes improvement are diametrically opposed and irreconcilable.

One point I'd like you to clear up. In one of your posts you said that
you didn't think that the Government really cares if Comcast or some
other provider has a monopoly or not. The thread isn't about monopolies,
it's about net neutrality. What is your view of that?

Thanks for the compliment.

Take care.
