[KLUG Members] Charter internet

[Adam Bultman]

I live a hop, skip and a jump from BFE.  Actually, I have to drive a ways
to get to bfe, it stands in the way of my house and grand rapids.

Seriously though: I actually live in Alto, 14 miles or so SE of Grand
Rapids.  It's quaint, quiet, and I can shoot guns off my back porch, so
it's nice. If you live anywhere but within 2000 feet of me, you have cable
access through either AT&T (north of my house) or charter (every other
direction).

If you are going to GR, then you'll pretty much be covered. Go to the
boondocks, and you are likely to be up a creek.
