  Heh.  It was 3-4 weeks for me to get my _first_ line installed when I
moved down here to Milwaukee.  Just moved to a new city and I had to do all
my net access and phone calls from work.  That was fun...  On the other
hand, I get connected at 45K+ and am rarely knocked offline so I can't
complain there.

I haven't dared think about a second line or DSL yet.  I would like to find
a different apartment this fall and it just doesn't seem like it's worth it
to deal with Ameritech within that time frame.  *sigh*
