[Cialug] Mediacom 10:1 offering

[Brandon Griffis]

I live in Clear Lake, up near Mason City.  If you'd be able to get the guys
contact info for me I'd certainly like to talk to him.  I have a feeling
he's only local to Central Iowa and at that it's probably only a deal on
their standard Internet service and not the new 10meg/1meg service, but it's
certainly worth a shot.

Thanks,
Gamble
