It's been far too long since we've had good entertainment on this

People were apt to indicate you were suggesting Mr Sentinel was either
stupid or a booty slinger.  I cannot wholly construe what you meant by
that, but I can understand why people would want to bring this to your
notice.

Also was a general dislike of Comcast's nebulous 'unlimited' bandwidth
limits, and how we're supposed to assume that that's OK.  I, and I can
guess many others, would be much more comfortable and willing to extol
the merits and virtues of an ISP who is candid about their bandwidth
limitations and who is definite as to what their expectations of user
limits are.
