I wouldn't want to give my details to the 3rd party. The cable company is likely to just advise that the contract signer has to call in. I know in the past I tried to deal with the elec. company on behalf of my girlfriend. Even though

My daughter has autism, she's now 14. Her mom passed away in Dec 2011. It's pretty scary to think of the future for her when I'm not around. I make sure she spends a lot of time getting to know all of the people in our family

We get one at 5 years, 7 years and 10 years. (not sure after that) It's this website you can go on and enter a code. The stuff is so crappy though it's really kind of an insult. It's like wow, I've been dedicated to this

I use both web2py and DAL on it's own as well. I really like the web2py framework. I started with django, but just wasn't as easy for me to pick up so I switched.
