Yes, I would highly recommend them if anyone needs rocks or asphalt work done. - Maury Lewis 2015-10-20 18:59:53 | Comments | Printable version

Wants more information about Project Fi in Kentucky Comments about: KY-FI: Using Project Fi in the Bluegrass by Tom Waggener Alex Ortiz writes: Good Morning. I saw the article online from Tom Waggener about Project Fi in Kentucky. I haven't seen many updates and am wondering how it is working out. I live in Campbellsville, have a Nexus 6 on the way, and am considering switching since I don't have good phone service at my house. It would be great to use it on wifi. Have you all used it much in Campbellsville? How is the cell service? I've heard Sprint and T-mobile don't cover this area that well.Thanks, Alex - Not sure if Tom has used Project Fi in Campbellsville - he's a Shelby County resident - but we'll post any information he would like to contribute and, in the meantime, hope other readers can share experiences here on CM - EW 2015-10-20 10:26:42 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Technology News

Letter: Agrees with Carol Perkins on nuisance callers Martha Berry writes: I love Carol Perkins' articles, but today's is one most of us can identify with. My "Mike" had a different name. He told me that he could tell that I was having problems with my computer. (I was not having any problems. In fact, one time I had just gotten the computer back from the local repair shop.) One call I let him talk and he told me he couldn't fix the problem but would transfer me to Microsoft for $500.00 and he was sure they could fix the "problem". Obviously, I was not going to give the anonymous caller the money and when he insisted I told him that I was going to write Microsoft about any "problems" that I was having. I did write Microsoft and they responded. They told me they do not outsource any work and had no one by that name working for them.Comments re article 78382 Carol Perkins Ive been hanging up on Mike for weeks now 2015-10-20 08:21:05 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Letters and Reader Feedback
