I would just like to add my .02 as well.  One thing that all to many 
times gets forgotten, is that being an ISP with a client base the size of 
MCS, problems will of course occur.  Nothin is perfect in life, and 
Internet Service follows that same rule.

Now, you might not like Karl, maybe he didnt cater enough to your ego, 
but thats not what he is there for.  He is a techie, true to the bone and 
so what if some of his social graces arent there, he gets the job done.

I have been an MCS customer, a SLIP customer for god almost two years 
now, and yes, things have gone wrong from time to time.  But I have gone 
through the channels, be it a semi-irritating non-emergency via 
support@mcs.com or if it was something life-threatening (at least in my 
realm) I gave them a call.  At all times these problems were resolved.

And, it should be noted that any problems I ran into on MCS over the
years were never that serious.  Every ISP has problems, didnt WWA just 
recently lose a whole load of email? I personally know one wwa customer 
who lost 5+ megs of it.
