    Interesting. When St. Joseph, Missouri gets levelled again by a massive
    earthquake like in 1867, will you suggest that the government just ignore
    everyone who chose to live there?

    You are living in an area with one of the worst earthquake histories of the U.S.

    Are there not building code rules to strengthen buildings against earthquakes?

    The same should apply to Internet connections. If you connect, you need to have
    a "building code" for your connections to prevent it damaging my system when it
    fails.

    I think you're wrong. I don't think an ISP should baby-sit anymore than I
    think the government should. We are all responsible for our own actions.
    That's life. Its called personal responsibility and I support it
    wholeheartedly.
