I didn't say I *wanted* the job.   :-)   :-)   :-)
However, there is this old-fashioned thing called "duty", which
I still believe in.   Fortunately, Sharon was very understanding
when I told her that DECUServe might be coming to live with us.  :-)

I think the users would be better served by a bigger pipe than
mine, but I can't get it here -- at least for a price mere mortals
can afford.   :-)   It hurts to pay $389/month for the T1, but the
next lower price is $156/month for IDSL (144kbps).   It sucks
being 22,000 feet from the Telco CO.   I looked into wireless, but
there is a large hill in the way.   :-(   Business-class cable is
not available.

If my offer spurs someone with better facilities to make a similar
offer, that would be wonderful and I will bow to them.   If not,
or if a backup site is desired, my offer stands.
