Starting in April, LIS moved to a 90hrs a month/30 bucks, after 90 hours
each hour was billed at a dollar. I was not notified of this until May
10th, when I had already wracked up a charge of 262 dollars for April.
I should be switching ISP's soon, but since I'm trying to con my way to
gencon, I can't exactly be nagging my folks for a loan for internet stuff
right away.
As for the offer of help, thanks, but no :) Most of you are just as broke
as me, anyways.. :)
Seriously, I am online less frequently now, and I get online, download
mail, say Hi to the folks on IRC, log off, read mail, write mail, log on,
send, log off, and then do other stuff. Do that 4 times a day, and my 3
hours is pretty much burned up :P

I want F#$@#$ing cable modems!
