Well, zelda, apparently spiders aren't the only things you have been trebucheting my way. My home Verizon DSL has been going off & on for the last 2 weeks. When I called their service number last weekend, I got a recorded message that said lots of people were offline and they were working on it. Then it came back on. Then went off.
I've been without DSL now for 4 days. Calling their service number puts you into an endless phone tree menu that passes you from recorded message to recorded message, never reaching an actual human voice. To make you think someone is listening to you, you are occasionally prompted to answer yes or no to inane questions like: "Is your DSL service off?" And - the one I like best - "For faster action, report your outage online"
I tried reaching them online at work, but none of the listed email contacts actually work.
So this afternoon I am picking up a Time Warner cable modem and switching to cable online access. Wish me luck!
[If I don't post this weekend, you'll know why!]
