And Ted Turner is sitting in front of a roaring fire in a 20000 sq ft log cabin on 800000 acres with 10000 head buffalo herd outside counting his 2 billion bucks laughing his ass off

FWIW,
 
My connection to AOL (via Time-Warner cable modem) has been down  for one 
week.
 
AOL customer support (finally) said today:
 
"If you use the AOL service bundle with Time-Warner cable you will  not be 
able to connect to the Internet. The Time-Warner servers no longer  connect to 
the AOL servers and we can not say when that situation will change.  We 
recommend that you unbundle AOL from Time-Warner and either use Verizon FIOS  
(fiberoptic cable cum modem) or DSL. If you want to stay with Time-Warner  cable, 
switch from AOL to Time-Warner's Road Runner service."
 
This  message is being sent via AOL using a Verizon USB WAN device to connect 
to  AOL.
 
If you have the misfortune of using being in a Time-Warner cable  area and 
you use AOL, you may already know this. It took me a week to find it  out. Seems 
pretty clear to me that Time-Warner is teeing AOL up to be  sold free of any 
legacy connections to Time-Warner.
 
If you do not have the misfortune of a Time-Warner cable/AOL ISP  lashup, you 
are probably OK as is. 
 
Comments?
 
Have fun,
