Never came across a quality phone company - be it cell phone or landline. Also, never got good service from a landline phone company. If it was deregulation by the Dems that made it possible for people to wire their own house, good. Phone wire is inexpensive and quite easy to install - as opposed to paying a ridiculous amount for a technician to come in, snake some wires, and leave drywall and scraps throughout the house; which seems to happen any time a technician comes in the house.

Run wires? Ever hear of wireless? Run to Staples/Best Buy and buy those units with a base station and multiple wireless satellite units. No more running wires.

Given the diversity of the human species, there is no “normal” human genome sequence. We are all mutants.

Slip, I will tell you again. The water is brown because of tannins in the ground,it is unavoidable in certain circumstances. I am sure you have the option to not buy their water and install your own well. Which will likely produce brown water.

I know, I was just taking the opportunity to whine about it some more and be negative

In fact in our case, the town knows the wells upstream from me need complete rehab of all their treatment stuff. They just won't spend the money to fix it. When I moved here and bought a house 21 years ago the water was great and we drank it(maybe that explains a lot )
