Many areas in the North Country and also Upper Valley have limited or no internet access. A whole new set of problems.

Here's to getting kids safely back in the classrooms.

Part of the problem there is Zoom itself. It is a terrible solution. However it is inexpensive so as usual the people that make technology decisions base them solely on price tag and end up paying a whole lot for something that is pretty much useless or barely usable irrespective of internet access quality. Somehow that makes sense! I'll never get that way of thinking, but then again these are probably the same people that shop at Wal-Mart so they don't know any better.

Like anything get what you pay for.
