If there was, Earthlink can jump ship and still sue the city for breaching said agreement. I'm sure the lawyers will solve it. They always do. What would we do without lawyers (sarcasm)? They always walk away with fat pockets while everyone else is the loser, no matter who ultimately "wins". Both parties pay a bundle, see little, while these guys make fortunes.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20452161 Thu, 08 May 2008 15:02:44 EDT Re: Philly has bigger problems.... http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20452126 jc100 : Posting your gang wars on you tube..

Muni Wifi can help jumpstart Philly's economy and that of all other midwestern cities who are economically depressed. Just think of it. Drug dealers can plan their sales virtually before hitting the pavement. Gang members can post their beatings and shootings on youtube. The list goes on and on as to why philly and all other cities should piss away cash. What troubles? As long as the crackheads, gangbangers, etc got internet, all is happy right?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20452122 Thu, 08 May 2008 14:54:29 EDT Re: Philly has bigger problems.... http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20451971 xirian : Google maps mashup of who has what turf? :D]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20451971 Thu, 08 May 2008 14:24:11 EDT Re: Philly has bigger problems.... http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20451664 Jigsaw : They don't call it kill-adelphia for nothing.What ever happened to the city of brotherly love :uhh:.

I agree. Philly can use municipal funds to solve way more pressing problems than WiFi access. Especially since it has so few users. Nutter should tell Earthlink to just go ahead and dismantle the network.

they are dropping there services like flies ]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20451474 Thu, 08 May 2008 12:46:12 EDT Philly has bigger problems.... http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20451384 N3OGH : Philly has bigger problems than Wi-Fi and Earthlink. It seems like every other month, another police officer is slain in the line of duty. Shootings over petty arguments are commonplace and murder is rampant.

Nutter would be right to tell Earthlink to take a hike.

In large parts of the city, the social fabric of society has collapsed and teenage children don't think twice about picking up a gun to settle their differences. It is a sad state of affairs.

As a Philly native and metro area resident it pains me every time I hear of another "murder filled" weekend in the city.

That said, I think Nutter is probably the best Mayor to come to Philly in a while. He's smart, well spoken, and most importantly straight forward. I pray for him and the city I will always consider my hometown.....
