However things went dramatically downhill from there. Covad's new policy is to always, always roll a Covad truck first--even when there's no sync at the NID. I have proposed that we rename "Panix Personal DSL" to "Panix Albatross".

Hmm, there are bound to be some phreaky connections lying about the place. Maybe you could forward the ADSL tech support line to Michael Powell's cell phone or something.
