There used to be a saying in this forum about keep calling back until you get a CSR agent who will take care of your problem (or provide the answer you want to hear ;-)).

From now on, we will have to keep calling back until we get IslandSkies on the phone instead ;-).

Thank you so much for all your contributions to the FT forum.
