Sunrise, Oliver Lee Memorial State Park, Alamogordo NM, January 16, 2009
We'll know soon
Yesterday I wagered Broadband Access would come up mid morning today, like it did last Friday. Let's hope it does.
Meanwhile, I have a slow connection at the moment (about 5:30 am) and I'm going to try and get a bit done here on the site.
Grumble.
[Update] Nope - access didn't come back up, except for a few minutes in the afternoon. At least that I'm aware of - I didn't sit here watching a static screen all day. A neighbor across the way seems to have better, though spotty access than I do. I wonder if my modem and router are in need of an update.

Site 7 - Oliver Lee Memorial State Park, Alamogordo NM
- Verizon cell phone service - good signal
- Verizon EVDO service - very good signal and access speed ( I have to qualify this - during my January 2008 visit the signal and access speed was excellent - in January 2009 it was practically non-existent during the day and slow at night with unpredictable short periods of excellent access)

Persistent and Ineradicable Instinct
Whenever we have a strong and persistent and ineradicable instinct, we may be sure that it is not original with us, but inherited -- inherited from away back, and hardened and perfected by the petrifying influence of time.
