I live outside the cities around me, on a farm in the country. As much as I would love to have broadband access, none is available to me (save satellite...) Also, the area I live in has poor phone lines, so I can't even get 56K rates! I assume that there will be people such as myself for the forseeable future... cable/dsl is just not available outside cites, and there is a sizeable portion of the US that does not live in/close enough to a city.
I've had this happen to me. Do you know how much it sucks to have to take a pen and paper or calculator and add up all the shit you people buy?? Now imagine that your job is to do this as fast as possible... and when you're slow people get really really pissed off at you. I might be good at math but speed adding under pressure was not one of the requirements I normally think of when I think of intelligence... and the union definitely didnt require it! LOL:-)
