Mike, do you see this as an example where 25Mbps was not sufficient for 
today's usage (as demonstrated by the change in actual usage measured 
after speeds were upgraded)? Or do you see this as an example showing 
that 25Mbps was fine (because the change measured was not great)? To 
that end, was the upgrade from 25M -> 200M wasteful? or was it useful?
