Yes, I see it just fine, Bob-
I'm not on dial up, but on satellite, which is a little faster.

With so little content, you're not giving it a good enough idea.

2 photos across will not load the page any faster than one across.

The email is up to you. Just remember, some people will only email, especially if they are looking late at night, and you're losing out on that business right now.

Most definitely. I didn't know if Mike was going in for a day or more. Any idea where to send some flowers?

I remember you trying to join in on a HIP forum chat last year and having a bad time of it because of your slow connection speed and lack of Broadband in the area.
That is why I asked the question, as I assume your clients would have the same issues with flash.

Mike and I are spoiled in a region that has 4G speed on phone service.
