Had a nice loooong talk with Jen about it when they announced they
were closing. They had gotten sick and tired of Ameritech continuing
to promise them new additional suburban dial up numbers and not
delivering them (they had been promising them new suburban pops for
several years, but kept pushing back the date), and they didn't want
to deal with an outside service like FOCAL, so they decided to hell
with it, and called it quits. Jen said at the time that they were just
sick and tired of the bullshit, and wanted out of the business. There
was also some interpersonal stuff going on between the top folks
there, but that just added to their decision to go their separate
ways.

Christ died for our sins. Dare we make his martyrdom meaningless by not committing them?
