If you live in a forest, and have wonderful trees and wildlife for neighbors,
you should consider (almost said c*unt but that would be naughty!)
yourself lucky instead of beng jealous! Yes, some of us city-folk enjoy
DSL and other modern conveniences. But we have to put up with crime
(not bad in Edmonton), traffic (getting worse), crowds (no WAY am I
doing any Christmas shopping at West Edmonton Mall!), and other by-
products of the human herding phenomenon.
It'd trade you in a heartbeat, Andrew! My DSL and daily fight with city
life for your home in the forest and dial-up internet service. I'll even get
used to that funny-looking plastic stuff you Aussies call money! <Grin!>
Oh, yeah, leave all your camera equipment behind when we swap...
you wouldn't want to subject your gear to this kind of lifestyle would
you?!?!?!? <Grin!>
