After nine years, my Netflix account is no more. I'm tired of being insulted and treated like a non-entity. It was curious that even after I confirmed the cancellation, they asked me to answer questions about why I was quitting and what I would use to replace Netflix, and their multiple choice answers didn't include suitable choices. Not even "Other" or "Non-specified." Reasons for quitting didn't include "Brainless management that refuses to listen to customers." Where I would get DVDs without Netflix didn't include an option for "the public library" which seems like an obvious possibility to me. Reasons for not using streaming downloads didn't include "No connection of sufficient bandwidth available in my area" which is in fact still the case in about 40% of the US. Shows us how ignorant of possibilities and facts Netflix management really is, I think. I'm going to consider greencine.com as a replacement, in fact, but they weren't listed as an option either.

Gasoline prices at two of Harvard's overpriced stations have dropped three times this week. The most recent change happened between 5 and 8 pm tonight.

Too much going on this week. Hay delivery put off three times, is now supposed to happen tomorrow morning. Heating technician is supposed to come in the morning too because our heat pump system is once more refusing to operate. Turn in of items for the spinning and weaving show in October also takes place tomorrow. Thank goodness it's only a half day of work.

Fuel at my filling station went up last night rather than down. Though I suspect it was a (previously postponed) tax increase
