Default Back to the Future?

It wasn't that long ago that we had propane lights, fridge and stoves. When we encouraged folks to get electricity in 1959, it was easy enough to get the minimum of 30 camps to sign on and pay the $150 deposit. Not enough people wanted phones, so that was delayed some years. Now, we're doing away with landline phones and DSL in favor of cell phones and Hub66. That declining market does not encourage CC to provide better service. Islanders are probably a losing operation for them.
