[1st-mile-nm] Resources for the 1st Mile project

[Owen Densmore]

Tom: They say that right out front of 632 Agua Fria, the wonderful  
site just beside Redfish, there is a fiber line.  We'd LOVE to figure  
out how to get 632 onto fiber and very high bandwidth.

Does anyone on the list know what we'd need to do to Make It Happen??
