=========================================
"Someone" signed for a package
sitting in our Los Barriles mailbox without checking to see
who it was intended - OOPS! It's not for us. We now are in
possession of a parcel sent by Lois Yoakum for a CARL
HOFFMAN. Anyone knowing the intended recipient please let
him know to call us at: 141-0169.

QUESTIONS
a. Does anyone know where the
dealer is in Cabo for Spectra (Pittsburgh) paint?

ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS
a. RE: VOIP
garbling
All internet service has a fast download (that's why you can
hear the other party) and lower speed upload (why they can't
hear you).
From my tests and what I've gotten from other VOIP
providers, you need at least 150K both directions. Down is
seldom a problem. To measure your connection speed, go to:

or other test. Ron – East Cape
