How do I align the text inside a td element?

(talking of searing experiences btw, I thought of you in the last few
days, Jonathan. I was back on dial up! It is a timely reminder of how
slooooooooow it is. Upload speed was not more than 3k per sec and it
took more than 4 days continuous to get what I needed up to a server
(and zipped packages at that).

It is soooooo frustrating. Here is my *only* hope of broadband and they
have been working on it for the 5th year. At their current deployment
pace I may have broadband when I become a centenarian!

Don't let their title fool you because apparently it doesn't. !-|

Yes, I have heard of this proposed technology. Does your upload speed
differ from your download? In a sustained FTP upload of a lot of
material, on my broadband, the difference is quite spectacular. On
dial up is it noticeable but everthing is so slow that it hardly
matters.

I suppose there is a good reason for this difference between download
and upload, is it a commercially driven or a technically driven
reason?

Technical.

Actually, with BPL it is supposed to be synchronous, upload==download.
Of course this reality is certainly is, 0.0kb/0.0kb

Welcome to my world. Thank &deity; for Linux and wget & wput and the
little -c switch.

That is why satellite's asynchronous connection is of little use...
