I voted with my wallet and switched to Shentel for both phone and net, 
about 10 or 11 years back. No cable tv though, we can get around a dozen 
channels of digital with a rooftop antenna.

I've had maybe 1% of the problems I was having with what was then 
verizons 60+ yo copper. From 1 Jan to mid-May that year I had to file 
with the states PUC 4 times to get it fixed, and still only had a phone 
for 2 or 3 weeks total. Switching to cable was a breath of fresh air, 
much higher quality voice, and whatever net bandwidth I wanted to pay 
for.  The only phone/net failures have been really prolonged power 
outages. Their battery's run down in about 30 hours. I'm still running 
as I've a 20kw nat gas standby on a pad behind the garage, gotta keep my 
ladies oxygen running as she's got COPD.

Cheers, Gene Heskett
