Notice I said "A suggestion" . Not "advice". political? Sorry if its
interpreted that way. Not meant to be. Just a opinion of AOL.
Besides - not qualified to give advice. (grin)
Question. (To anyone -- All) Why should I pay AOL $21
something a month for internet excess when from a local ISP it's
$10 per month. Full excess - unlimited time. To me this is
just common sense.
Or does AOL offer something special? Have I missed something?
