I’m finding this trip to be the most frustrating yet in terms of communications access. A good chunk of southern Utah was jsut a dead spot for my cell phone, and the first motel had a *really* slow wifi. And the motel I got in Albuquerque is useless in terms of WiFi. My fallback option of stopping at a McDonalds has been stymied by a sudden mysterious lack of McDonalds in this region. Hmmmf. So, I’m posting this from a New Mexico highway rest stop midway between Albuquerque and Los Alamos.
Now: as annoying as that has been… try beaming that previous paragraph back in time, oh, 20 years. People wouldn’t have had the slightest clue what the hell my problem is…
