Ron, I take issue with your comments.. READ what the gentleman is
saying. The 'Net' is MUCH busier during prime time, hence slower,
whether your connection by modem is good or bad!  That's a general
known.  True, the server on your end may have a small amount to do
with connection speeds and data transfers from the 'net' to your
computer, but a lot has to do with generally heavier traffic during
peak hours. He said nothing about modems, busies, etc, but made a
pretty accurate statement imo about the 'net' during prime time hours.
