My dear EFN family, let me say first that I am sorry. My ears are bent toward your own explanations and stories.
Secondly, I would like to state that I am admittedly an ignoramous when it comes to what happened inside the organization of EFN (and also OPN). To tell more properly, EFN always amazed and impressed me, and I am lucky to have enjoyed some of their services and celebrating their model. I first learned of EFN when I was living off the grid in the coastal range, so please understand that I speak from beyond the keyboard, in that. Poor excuse, I know. I'd like to retract the notion that any zealousness existed, nor that any similar sentiments had anything to do with our not having EFN with us today. A proper eulogy is not my own. I spoke off the cuff, in a mood no less. Out of order and off-topic. Copy and paste bowing empathetic emoticons here. Additionally, please continue to try not to take what I wrote as a personal attack, either. Best regards, and highest regards for EFN's achievements. <3 Ben PS - Possibly redirect any remaining negativity to Comcast. Corporate charters should be revoked from time to time, I think this would be a good time to set an example. Along with the mega-banks, ma bell's zombie, and say various large and controversial government contractors. Different mood here, hope this helps. I'll try to be more mindful toward euglug and others...
