Need help identifying a mayfly

Yeah, tell me about it. :-)

Assuming I get a good connection, I can surf the web at the blazing
speed of 26.4 Kbps baby! g

Yowza. At least I get access at 6 Mbps, but that's only for about 15
seconds, until the switcher decides that some other computer has priority
and I get disconnected midfeed. Then I have to go back and reconnect to the
server, re-initialize my browser, and redo the search. Other times, I have
to share that bandwidth with 60 other computers, so I only get a microburst
for a second or two every 10 minutes. However, sometimes I get lucky and I
can access the net for 10 or 15 minutes at a time, like at 1AM.

At a meeting the other day, someone said "Doesn't anyone in the Congo have
a good internet connection??" My first reaction was sympathetic, then my
second reaction was just how ludicrous that statement was. What a world we
have created, eh? :-)

It seems that the Congo and Montana have a couple of things in
common. Small comfort for someone that wishes to see the Congo
first hand, but I guess it will have to do for now.

Yeah, that desire to see the Congo firsthand has just about expired. I spend
a lot of time thinking about Montana these days....

Hmmmm, maybe we can start a new reality show called "Trading Place"
where you and I switch locations. I am ready and more than willing!
