Here is the very definition of irony for you all:
I have been unable to check back on this very post since posting it from work due to the flooding in Santa Barbara. Why, you may ask? Because Cox Cable owns the very monopoly spoken of in this thread, and is unable to make repairs, and because of the complete lack of competition, there simply is no other infrastructure, no competitors to get service from, so when the only game in town goes down, everyone else does as well. At work, we have been without internet for four days now and have enough manually ran credit card slips to keep us busy for a full day inputting them when the net comes back online. I was able to login from my phone today, I had actually forgotten I even made this post tbh die to all the chaos around here, but saw it during some downtime and laughed due to the irony. I'll probably chime in with something meaningful when I can type it gonna keyboard and not text it.
