You can still not have Internet access in 2006?

Apparently so. MercuryNews.com estimates that 25% of the United States still doesn't have Internet access. And apparently 18% of those without Internet access are "not interested in anything on the Internet."

Wow. If you're not interested in anything on the Internet, you must not have many interests.

I can't imagine being without Internet access. On a few occasions, I've had to go offline for a day or so. I distinctly remember waking up one such morning, realizing I couldn't go online, and pacing around the house for hours looking for something to do. Pretty sad, actually.
