Yes Sam,

The access issue is the biggie. AOL has not released the details.
It is hard to know if this will lead to profitability. WCOM gets
ANS and CSNS (CSRV's) to bolster its already formidable network.
I would imagine even with a favorable deal, AOL will still have to
shell out considerably more than they charged themselves if
they are to radically increase their effective network capacity. I would think that WCOM would not give away the service at or below
cost. I would also think that the AOL stock marketing machine would
be in overdrive if indeed the access deal was as favorable as you
suggest. Your thought, as always, would be greatly appreciated.

Joe
