    I don't smoke, but going outside to get a whiff of fresh air isn't a bad idea anyway - and I do it the same place as the smokers. Magic! :)

    While you're at it, why don't you take a ball peen hammer to the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel since it contains religious thought. Or perhaps make it your life's work to erase any remnant of the works of William Blake since he was apparently a Christian.

    Don't really follow that much the American ISPs, as I live in Denmark, but I've worked for three ISPs so far - two of the delivering, in part, through cable modems. Incidentally, my current employer is renting office space from the danish branch of Verizon Wireless... xD
