I'll take whatever I can get as far as awards go, John.  Your'e
right of course, it was rant. and telling you confidentially, 
sometimes there's this 'chimp' factor jumps into things at this
terminal and takes over and types "put another log on the fire..."
"or try and get arty...or "testing, testing"

the chimp does not seethe, obviously.  Through it's veins and 
capilliaries courses the rich red velvet tide of the next step into 
humanity. It is inevitable, or so it says.  pretty dynamic notion of 
ascendency for a tree-dwelling gatherer, eh? 

BTW orca.gov.bc.ca
>sounds like sonething my taxes are paying for... is it?

I don't doubt that in many ways, all ISP's are subsidized by all 
of us. ha ha,ha...but...

orca.gov.bc.ca was brought into this and other bc communities over
the last eighteen months or so.  Now that a market is established,
the bc systems ISP will be leaving.  My $30/month 1hr-a-day in prime time
contract with bc.systems runs out in about a month.  I understand that 
they are now closing shop all over the whole province.  

I am in the process of signing onto a private server for 25%  more $$$, 
but about two times the price as what you can get it for in the 
southwestern part of bc.

I have heard of the possibility of other servers linking into our 
community.  By the way that local computer sellers are
hawking the Internet thing, no doubt competition will come and 
prices will tend to go down.  Still gonna be only X,000 households in our
community to serve, so I hope that nobody, market or server, gets
burned.  

BTW, If I'd known you were on the awards panel, I would have used my 
best modem.


Best in the new year!
