Your neighbor was making a lot of noise this afternoon about Google blocking or deleting this article from their cache and that is was pulled from the online edition. Except that the article IS still there: http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2013/jun/29/european-private-data-america Thing is all I had to do was copy the link from the Google cache error. ;-) BTW, I don't know where Starbucks is in Sonoma or which one you would be at plus why would you be using the wifi at Starbucks (I don't) and why not Sebastopol which has 1 gigabit fiber through Sonic.net? Last time I was in Sonoma was probably 2000.
