Are you telling me you'd drive in a trans-Atlantic tunnel? It'd be freezing, the pressure would probably be too much for anything in the tunnel, and overall, it would take ages to drive it.

Well the connection is using high-speed internet which is faster than the average person's broadband so presumably Tiscali are funding the high-speed connection and in return get advertised.
