I'm interested in questions like, what would Wolfgang think? / What would Ben think.?
For example, what would Mozart thing of Rock and Roll if you gave him a year to get adjusted to the time-shift.? In particular, what would Mozart think of "Can't You Hear Me Knocking" by The Rolling Stones.?
As for Ben, I'm going to speak for him.:
He would say, for sure, that Wi-Fi should be city-wide in Philadelphia, paid for by tax money.
Think of it this way: what if you had to maintain the stretch of road outside your house, instead of having it all paid with tax money.?
___
Ben's observation (complaint) is brought on behalf of Virginia Mae Smith: Almost every time she moves there is a problem with the wi-fi. This is two-thousand and seventeen.
COME ON.!
___
- this complaint is true of all of the big cities, as far as i know.
- the exception my be San Leandro, California, which is busy, redefining itself with the new Tech Campus and Marco's sculpture, "Truth is Beauty".
- San Leandro also claims to now have the widest broadband in the Country. I hoping that means, City-wide, but I'm not sure.

Little Franky Franklin? Seriously. That makes me giggle and think of Jimmy James from the TV Show NewsRadio.
He does not possess wealth; it possesses him.
