Dear ASA Communication and Information Technology Section Member,
As ASA's Communications Director I am writing to request that if you have
expertise on or research-based knowledge about why some Internet users
cling to dial-up (vs higher-speed) connections to the Internet, please
contact Columbia News Service reporter Stephen Shen (917-763-2201,
sdc2133@columbia.edumailto:sdc2133@columbia.edu) immediately, as he is on
deadline for COB today writing a story for the news wire on this topic.

So, Stephen maybe read an article about how people are "clinging" to dial up, but the article didn't say why? Was it a research article? Or was it just made up? Are they clinging, or using? What's his source on this "cling" business?
