There are also hints that they will be raising prices again. Considering
that AT&T just did this within the last couple of months, it's a bit
amazing. Maybe they subscribe (no pun intended) to the "What the market will
bear" school of marketing. Maybe they haven't heard that a lot of high tech
folks aren't working just now and that their accounts may dry up a lot
faster than anticipated.

P.S. Actually it's been so cold lately maybe hell is freezing over... ;^)

change their email addresses *again*!


I had to call AT&T after they turned off all of my email accounts, stating
that my accounts were inactive due to a complete screw up on their end.  I
know, total shocker.  It was at that time that they told me that I would be
changing as of the first week in February, but I have not seen any
notification go out.  Ya think they would tell everyone, but obviously
things will not change with the new ownership.
