Well, I'll begin keeping track.  Although, like many casual users, I check
my email a few times a day, and a slight lag is usually not an issue.  Of
course in aol network problems continue, I'm gone.

So, while I'm on the topic, could readers suggest local internet providers
which are no more expensive than $20 a month unlimited, which allow me to
sign on at home or at work, which have a local (Albany) access number,
which rarely slow down or return busy signals, and which allow different
members of my family to have different e-mail addresses under the same
account?
