Notes on an overheard conversation between a customer of the Monopolistic Phone Company and Technical Support on an email issue

“Hello, this is Bob, The Monopolistic Telephone Company Technical Support Technician. How may I help you?”

“Bob, my emails to Earthlink aren't getting through, but I can still receive emails from Earthlink. Can you help me?”

“Well, my father lives way out in the country, and I don't know where or how the equipment is set up out there, but I think that the cows get in between the equipment and block the signal.”
