Let's hope they are right.

I would like broadband, but not at the expense of HF. I have no real
expectation of either DSL or cable Internet ever being available on this
side of our street as long as we are the only house on this side, but BPL
would doubtless wipe out HF, as the power lines run across the front of
our lot.

A friend suggested that we should try linking into our neighbour's
wireless LAN on the other side of the road to piggyback onto their
broadband. It just might work, too. We would do it with their consent, of
course (the neighbour, not their ISP!).
