Happiness...
is a warm kitten purring in your lap. Especially when the kitten had a tough time recovering from being spayed last week.
I thought that I would post a link to the specific food that helped to restore Kitty's appetite (Hill's Prescription Diet Canine/Feline a/d), but the website has the most evil-looking URLs, which I refuse to propagate. However, the food itself is highly recommended. It even tastes good — unlike, say, Fancy Feast, which looks and smells disgusting (I did not taste it!).
A Letter to FCC Chairman Michael Powell
David Isenberg et al
We hold that the primary cause of current telecom troubles is that Internet-based end-to-end data networking has subsumed (and will subsume) the value that was formerly embodied in other communications networks. This, in turn, is causing the immediate obsolescence of the vertically integrated, circuit-based telephony industry of 127 years vintage. CLEC, IXC and ILEC bonds used to purchase now-obsolete infrastructure assets have become (or inexorably are becoming) bad debt. Weak last-mile competition prevents the most powerful technological advances from reaching all but a few customers; this is the largest cause of long-haul over-capacity.
