CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
What is your current Internet Connection?

I'll be getting ADSL in a few days, otherwise I'm still stuck on a slow 56k Dial-up connection. 
What's everyone else got?

DSL...
But here I have ADSL2+, and I think there is no ADSL2+ anywhere else in the world.
So my connection has a theorical bandwidth of about 20 Mbps ... and a real of at least 17 Mbps (that's the maximum what I got when tested).
My ISP also provides TV and phone trough ADSL for free, using a ``modem'' that is actually a very small linux box with triple play techology.
Quite unique, so I just precise that it's not really traditional DSL...

I've got a cable connection that averages around 1.5 mbps. For an extra $10 a month my cable company would up that to 5 mbps but 1.5 is working out fine for me.
Back in the good old days (5-7 years ago) I would sometime get up to 8 mbps, but they capped that when the local phone company introduced DSL at 1.5.

56k modem, running at the speed of a snail wading thru molasses... (26.4k)
I can't get the phone company to come in and upgrade the line for DSL. they say the line isn't good enough or qualified enough and it's not possible to fix the line I have right now.
the phone company is Qwest.
I want DSL!!!

I'm more on like a ISDN connection, but hopefully I will be getting slow dsl soon. Dedicated at least. 96 kbps up and down. I will be upgrading to 128kbps up and down.
