Progress in the Making

Greetings Fellow Vonorians...
OK, that's a new one perhaps! First of all thanks to all of those who signed the electronic and written petitions. Please do pass the word to others who also want to see this happen. 
Recently, I saw an online ad from a company looking for paid customer and technical support representatives for work-from-home positions.  All you needed was a computer (up to date one), and a high speed Internet connection.  Wow, I thought this would be great for out of work folks, or retirees, or students, or people looking for part time work but who needed to be at home for whatever reason.  But there was one big obstacle: there is no high speed Internet access in this area!  How terrible I thought that a great, no-scam, job opportunity could not be taken advantage of all because the high speed Internet was not available here.  Well, I am sure other opportunities are unavailable because of this situation, but let's all hope and work toward making this situation at thing of the past.
Well, thanks again and please keep spreading the word about this petition.  We need 192 more signatures to get Comcast and TDS interested.  We can do this!
