Subject: Documentary About 1975 New York Telephone Fire
I've received a URL for a documentary that describes the repair effort
which followed the 1975 New York Telephone fire that gutted the
13th St. building on 2nd Ave in New York City.
I'd like to see opinions on whether the repair effort could be
duplicated today, or if, given newer technology, it would even be
necessary.

Subject: Meet the man who has pushed for better broadband in DeSoto
County for over a decade
By Justin Garcia
During the drive down State Road 72 from Sarasota to DeSoto County,
strip malls fade away, traffic gets lighter and nature begins to take
hold. The congested rush of the city is replaced by Myakka River State
Park, followed by pastoral farmland. It's a green and tranquil ride,
aside from a couple sections of rough road.
