[olug] Local internet access.

[Charles Bird]

Oh man, I have to put in my estatic feeling of the week...I found some apts. right across the street from the qwest CO in Counciltucky I mean like 200-400ft, I dont know where in the line it is but it cant be too far.....whoo!! I asked the lord of the land if I could install 2 phone lines for twin DSL bussiness connections and I got the OK, I'll be moving in 4-5 months. Then I can make my twin rack with a bunk bed on top. =D
   I'm still wondering about shotgun DSL, I know its been done with and without permision from CO on the east coast and I'm gonna have to talk to those fools to see whats going on with that in our area.
Anyone know the deal with shotgun dsl?
