[GRLUG] Grand Rapids passed over for Google Fiber

[Bob Kline]

And I got a flyer in the mail today
saying some higher speed Comcast
offerings are now available in this
area.

So I called.  Not a word of truth in
it. "We just send the flyers to everyone."
He also mentioned there is no time table
for this area.

Geez.  You'd almost thing MI was the
economic backwater of the US.

Ah, it is.  50th out of 50.  I can't see
Comcast killing itself to get 50/10
service here, but a friend in Houston
has had it for a while now.

What is that song?  "I'm going to Kansas
City, Kansas City, here I come?"

Well, at least Google's fiber project is
for real.
