side issue here ... but some of you may recall $20/month phone bills.... and complaints against the main Telco for their " local service subsidizing" high long distance rates enough to break up AT&T in the 70's Today the whole family runs around with thousand dollar phones plus network fees, drinking 4-5$ coffees, and 100+ TV channels, dumping enough food in the garbage more than enough to feed cities in Europe and Africa, washing down the Land rover or Ford 250 pulling the fifth wheel for 2 weeks of camping 500 miles away at 10 miles a gallon with millenias just waiting for mom and pop to download their heritance dead or alive !
