ECE has started putting fiber optic cable up in our area, starting with Mora and Pine City. The more people who sign up now at ecefiber.com, the sooner and more likely that they will come to our area and get the funding.  Signing up does not require any commitment or deposit, just an interest.  It is very good price for very fast speeds: $65/month for 100 mbps, plus subsidy for economic need.
