On Comments
Last week we received a comment making various accusations against a particular individual. This site is not intended as a forum for such comments and that comment has now been removed. This is not a judgement of the truthfulness or otherwise of its content. We are glad that the majority of users keep comments on this site focussed on the quality of service of wifi locations in Grand Rapids. Other grievances should be pursued through more appropriate fora.
