“My passions are all asleep from my having slumbered till nearly eleven and weakened the animal fiber all over me to a delightful sensation about three degrees on this sight of faintness -- if I had teeth of pearl and the breath of lilies I should call it languor -- but as I am I must call it laziness. In this state of effeminacy the fibers of the brain are relaxed in common with the rest of the body, and to such a happy degree that pleasure has no show of enticement and pain no unbearable frown. Neither poetry, nor ambition, nor love have any alertness of countenance as they pass by me.”
John Keats

Although we're in the early stages of FTTX deployment, we have a lot of fiber already in place as part of the first phase of the Burlington Telecom Project.”
Chris Burns
“They are high in fiber and most Americans don't get enough fiber. Fiber helps digestive health, helps take toxins out of the system and helps take cholesterol out of the system.”
Carol Neumann
