I just recently moved to Attleboro and, although I love the area, I do not like that there are no alternative Internet providers other than Comcast. I did read in the Sun that the absence of FiOS is not for lack of trying. The article stated that Verizon was not interested in coming to Attleboro. However, we could petition other companies such as AT&T's Fiber service and/or Google Fiber (https://fiber.google.com/about/). Google has a great incredibly fast and reliable Internet/TV/Phone service which has improved the economies where they have been installed. We could attract many young home buyers to Attleboro with an offering like Google Fiber (as an example, perhaps many Boston employees would look at living in Attleboro to get great Internet service and they're right around the corner from the train station). This is just a preliminary thought and I know that it's easier said than done but I at least wanted to make the suggestion.

I'm pretty sure SOWA, LLC is going to be withdrawn without prejudice but we need a Denny's here and there's no one going to do about it. And for a proposed bank, I suggest Bank Newport since Chase...

And for a proposed bank, I suggest Bank Newport since Chase withdrew the application last year. So please, renew this "Shops on Washington" thing at once and get Denny's open in time.
