f**k. I don't even know how to respond to that. Well done.
I was wrong to say we treat it like a luxury. What I should have said is that it's too slow, too expensive and yet crucial to future economic wellbeing. It would be better if people joined together as taxpayers and built an open access nonprofit fiber optic network, regionally to begin, with a national effort to follow.

What did I tell you? Galt has reached new peaks lately. He's like the American space program: often ignored, always disparaged, but really doing great things.

Calm down kid. I've been a big Galt fan for years, but I'm afraid that if we laud and praise him he'll get soft.
