Sorry to hear this (the "stuck" part) Jonathan. When everyone
else had gone to broadband, I remained steadfast voluntarily. I
even made up reasons for staying ("better to be in tune of load
times for ones web pages" and ... well, you should have seen
them!). It suited me, it encouraged going off to have a cup of
tea while something happened, (tea is very good for mopping free
radicals up... sorry everyone, I am here to stay).

btw, about your (a), it is the average that matters. Mine used to
go up and down, (just as my broadband does).

Why are you stuck? A rich and talented artist like you could
surely get satellite?
