I cited the entire *complaint*. That Tina C. wishes to get more from CS than
her contract provided (like the MSN and Prodigy ones, it provided for a
cancellation fee) is a matter for her and CS to work out. Meanwhile, can you
give me her email address so I can see what has happened since?  You cite
her so often and ask what *I* would do, that I feel it is reasonable for me
to find her story directly. Meanwhile, you cited far more than a 2 1/2 hour
outage in your complaints about your own ISP.
