[olug] Cox Bill $17.50 Charge Data Only Connect

[Dan Linder]

I'm going to watch when we get the next bill.  Since we use Quicken
and it auto-populates the amount field we should notice if this
changes drastically since we don't have much variation month-to-month.
 I've asked my neighbors to watch too just in case.
