Hi Gang! I'm in Raleigh, North Carolina this weekend, just down the road from the Cisco Systems campus, as well as many other major networking and technology companies. I'm actually here for non-technology reasons, but thanks to wireless access in hotels today, it would be just like I was at home, except for one thing: The ISP for the hotel I'm staying in - I'll keep the name secret to protect the not-so-innocent - is quite possibly the worst ISP I've ever seen. They've apparently had a problem with allowing their clients access to any secure sites - which includes my email server - for the past EIGHTEEN HOURS and they have no idea when it's going to be back up. They told me it was a firewall issue. No ETA on getting it fixed. Now maybe I'm a tad unreasonable - but shouldn't a full day be enough to fix that? :) I'm smiling now, but it's been quite a frustrating experience. Just wanted to share with the group, AND to tell you that I sti...
