- Unable to sustain faith (in science infected with money interests). One wonders if global warming and the money/science/faith connection with occur more globally.
- Hotels and Internet. It’s my experience (globally) that the high end and low end hotels all charge for internet. Judging from the Internet price, I’d guess SPH considers itself “high end” and charges accordingly like its peers.
- A book for youth (and perhaps more) recommended. Twelve more here.
- The former premier atheist remembered.
- The view from the entitlement wing.
- Home servers?
- Directly connecting media and Palin vs Kennedy. This connects to that as well.
- Straight to a girls heart, genus genius of course.
- QoD links. (that’d be mostly evolutionary biology)
- A deontological response.
- An atheist disagrees fundamentally with Dawkins.
- Hunting … Elmer?
- Heh.
- So, now we all know.
- I saw many of his works displayed in the Russian Museum in St. Petersburg this summer and I agree they are very striking.
- Saint Lucia remembered.
- Crime and punishment?
- Where the green global warming fans (fanatics) are leading us, to solutions that just don’t work?
- Christ hidden in Talmud?

This blog is pretty incredible. Quite a mind at work here.
Robert,
Huh? Whatever do you mean by that?
It’s my experience (globally) that the high end and low end hotels all charge for internet.
It’s been my experience that the low-end hotels don’t charge, but high-end ones do. The every hotel I’ve stayed in for business doesn’t charge (extra) for Internet, including the Quality Inn in Hartsville, SC, but both 3- and 4-star hotels I used while vacationing in DC (which I got for a steal on Hotwire; consider that a recommendation) both charged extra for it.
Doug,
Motel 6 and Red Roof for quite some time charged for Internet. I consider them “low end,” as more often than not they don’t get the business clientele.
But it would be more accurate to say, some low end hotels either don’t provide internet or charge for it. Almost all mid-range hotels provide it for free and I’ve never seen a high end hotel not charge for it, the few times I’ve stayed in one.
Well, I guess this may all be anecdotal, but the Super 8 in Massillon, Ohio had free Internet access way back in 2000. I consider Super 8 much like a Motel 6. (OK, maybe 2 numbers higher than a Motel 6.
)
