Chicagoian here: I recently drove back from Tampa, FL to Chicago on Sunday. Drove through Atlanta at the right time. Got to Indiana and followed plows back from Indianapolis up to the state line. In a 2 door coupe with 300hp and stock tires.

Be prepared. Slow down. Don't drive like an asshole. Most importantly, *don't go out if you don't need to*.

What happens when consumer demand for bandwidth rises faster than prices, and your revenue and profits don't cover equipment upgrades because of the demand curve? In that case, you charge more.

If you're Comcast, AT&T, or some other large incumbent, yes, you're milking your customers. Small town ISPs? Not so much. Feel free to grab an uplink and some gear, and try to deploy your own low density ISP and see what your costs are.

I forget where I read it, but while Honey Boo-Boo is extremely irritating, the mother is extremely responsible with regards to the money the show is bringing in for her child. Its locked up until her child is 18, unlike what the majority of people due with their children's television/movie earnings.

"Credit where credit due" sort of thing.
