[luau] Verizon DSL

[R. Scott Belford]

I have not used Verizon as my ISP.  I think they are less money than my 
current deal with Flex.  I must say, though, that I have been getting 
what I pay for from flex.com for two years straight.  touchwood  I don't 
have those fantastic download rates that road runner can occasionally 
offer, but I ALWAYS get the bandwidth I pay for.  For my first year on 
the island, I had road runner in addition to flex.  When it came time to 
choose, I went with stability over potentially faster transfer rates.  
The only time I really appreciated the incredible upside potential of 
roadrunner was when I pulled down large iso's.  I just do that before I 
go to bed, now, and day in and day out the rest of the Internet gets to 
me fast enough.
