THANK YOU, THANK YOU - We at NorthNet recently had our web site
updated with the assistance of CyberTrail Outfitters, and we would like
to thank all of you who have contacted us to say how much you like it!
We hope you find the new site easier to get around and that you
take advantage of all the great information it provides.
If you would care to send us your comments on our new site, please
send them to info@northnet.org
MULTIPLE SIMULTANEOUS LOG-INS - As a reminder to all NorthNet
customers, we allow only one instance of your account to be logged on
at any one time. This has always been our policy (see
http://www.northnet.org/northnet/hterms.html)
When we moved from a 200 hour maximum per account, to no charge
for overtime hours, this became an issue. We must insist that only one
instance of any account be logged on at any one time. If you need to
have other members of your family or company logged in at the same
time, please purchase additional accounts for this purpose.
Customers who persistently have multiple simultaneous log-ins
will be notified and given the opportunity to purchase additional
accounts.

TICKLE YOUR FUNNY BONE - "Communication has changed so rapidly
in the last twenty years. E-mail, which now sends data hurtling across
vast distances at the speed of light, has replaced primitive forms
of communication such as smoke signals, which sent data hurtling across
vast distances at the speed of light."
