Its the 21st century! Just about everyone now has Broadband internet access in one form or another, unless you live in the woods. Yes, satellite internet is improving, but the figures are out, that show around 19 million Americans need a dial up modem (remember those slow, ugly boxes that allowed a website to load in about a minute?) to get online. It is getting better though, last year it was 26 million without access. The WORST state? West Virginia followed by Montana. The FCC is pushing for universal access by 2020. Maybe someday people will be able to use Netflix in Aurora!
