3. Wait times in Canada are horrendous.
True and False again — it depends on which province you live in, and
what’s
wrong with you. Canada’s health care system runs on federal guidelines
that
ensure uniform standards of care, but each territory and province
administers
its own program. Some provinces don’t plan their facilities well
enough; in
those, you can have waits. Some do better. As a general rule, the
farther
north you live, the harder it is to get to care, simply because the
doctors
and hospitals are concentrated in the south. But that’s just as true
in any
rural county in the U.S.

WHEN are you going to fix your cut and paste quoting?

I'm posting through Google Groups, and their system offers no
line length information.

So, I have to guess, and I'm not always right. <shrug>

AFAICT, you are never correct about the line lengths and you are always
long by several characters.  As a friendly suggestion, you might try
continuing to use your Mark One Eyeball method and THEN cutting back by
10%.

Thats what I try to do. Its not always successful. <shrug>

Judging from your cut and paste efforts, it is *never* successful. but I
digress...

Indeed you often do. Thats why you are so often wrong...

OR, you could, as Mr. O'Hara points out, use a real NG service.  *I'M*
dirt poor, being on SSDI, and I can still afford 35 GB monthly on
Giganews [1] (@ $12.99 a month) and a copy of Forté Agent.  Agent should
fit on a reasonably sized USB drive if *that* is a problem.

1) Our Internet costs are plenty enough, already.

Because $4.99 a month would break you?

Lets be real clear about this, sparky: You simply DON'T get
ANY say over how *I spend MY money*.

Capice ? Duh.

2) Since mid
October, we're at my in laws home, and I don't get a say over
THEIR Internet services and equipment.

This Made Me Laugh

You can access a Giganews account from anywhere (why do you think I
mentioned using a USB drive) with 'Net access.  It wouldn't be about
*their* Internet services.

If it involves putting programs onto their computers (Plural), then
it does.

 This is unreadable for many people.

Oh, grow up. Copy and paste it to a basic Word document,
if your eyes are so feeble.

I'm not the only one who has commented.  And, trust me, many people just
don't bother TO comment.

So, you're ASSuming that people are commenting, by NOT commenting.

I look at who normally comments on posts like yours, subtract out the
people known to have killfiled you and put 3 and 3 together and come up
with 9 (as in 3 times 3).

<Mental Masturbation Projection>

Chase your own tail much ?

The above shows that you do...

 For a lot of people, if a poster does not make
the effort to make their posts readable, they just skip them -
especially if that poster is contentious (like you or I).

See 1) & 2), above.

What do your costs and the fact that you're at your inLaws have to do
with the fact that people aren't reading your missives because they find
them unreadable?

I post as I choose, within the strictures I've mentioned.

If you are far too control freaky to get that you get NO say in that
at all,
that too is YOUR problem, sparky.

David Loewe, the tyrant wannabe of rasf...

[1] I download binaries and I haven't ever run close to exhausting this
allowance (I did on the old 25 GB allowance once or twice).  The 5 GB
account @ $4.99 per month should be sufficient for even the most
prolific text only user.

Our bills are own own business. Others get a vote over my spending
choices, ONLY when THEY pony up 100% of the recommended
spending.

So, $4.99 a month *would* break you.  Good to know.

David Loewe, the tyrant wannabe of rasf...

I'll repeat for anyone else not so grossly ignorant:

I, and anyone and everyone else, gets to 1) spend our $$$ as WE
see fit and non-fit, and 2) Run our computers and other possessions,
as WE see fit, with and without whatever we CHOOSE to have and
have not.

If anyone has a problem with that, you are casually invited to ***
a rabid tubercular goat.

Oh, and I'll never tell someone else what they SHOULD have.
