Estimates of the maximum bandwidths of all the human senses, combined, range between the capacity of a T1 line (at the low end) and about 4 Mbps (at the high end). A human being simply is not wired to accept more input. (Yes, machines could digest more... which means that additional bandwidth to and from the home might be useful for the purpose of spying on us.) What does this imply about the FCC's proposal to redefine "broadband" as a symmetrical 10 Mbps?
That they understand that more than one person lives in a house. "Spying on us"? <plonk> Cheers, -- jr 'I retract the apology' a -- Jay R.
