Excite extinguishers

[Frances Morey]

Did Excite go out of business nationwide? It still seems to be working here.
But there were a few days when I thought I had lost it and couldn't get On.
I always think it is my fault first, but later in the day I discovered that
the glitch was widespread and several other businesses along Burnet Road
were having the same problem.
