Some of us are fortunate to have any computers at all, much less an Internet connection. I’m lucky to be alive, so I don’t gripe much about my dialup.

Please don’t make the mistake some other FReepers have made, assuming because I’m sick and broke that I’m also stupid - and I won’t assume you’re really that small-minded and cruel. Thanks.

I used dialup for decades. I didn’t ask others to forgo using their latest technology so I could play along. I set my browser not to load graphics and played with the big boys without so much as a whimper.

As for your being ill and down on your luck, my primary objective is to have as many conservatives congregate as is possible. That includes both people with dial-up and the latest equipment.

I appreciate you including me in that small-minded and cruel group, but I will say that I suggested a solution that would serve everyone, without asking you or anyone else to limit their device in any way. If that’s small minded, I think your threshhold is rather low. Now if I were asking others to limit their machines to 3/4 capability, I guess you could make that case.

Glad to have you here. I appreciate your reply.
