Tough Times

Took Mum to Knoville today so we could visit Virtual Interactive Center (our ISP) and talk to Josh (our service rep). The bad news:

VIC is also discontinuing their e-mail and web hosting services. Mum's mail will be phased out in a few months and her website will need new hosting probably in less than a year.

Since Mum has accounts with other webservices we can migrate her e-mail pretty easily, but doing something about her website is going to take some creativity.

It's a shame that VIC is dropping our business because in our view they've always been a class operation and we like them just as much now as we did in 1997 when we started.

PS: I bought my box set of Wings of War: Fire In The Sky. Going to open it this evening.

Does the local TV news count? All the anchors must have gotten their journalism degrees from Murphy Brown.
