Hi Gary, "1) Do you think gearing ratios can be applied to CLEC's as they mature?" I'm sure they will and I'm sure they do now. I'm sure Bill knows exactly where he wants to be in terms of dept/equity, but this is stuff is much more in line with Gentleman-Boyles expertise, so I'm sure he'll comment much more intelligently than I could. "what do you think will be BT's port of entry into the USA or are the content with the ATT deal for now." I understand that the WinStar/BTY deal in June was a done deal until the BT CEO took it to the BT Chairman who nixed it at the last second in favor of the alliance with AT&T. If so, you'd have to believe BT understands the strategic value of WinStar, so when they're ready to further develop a presense in the US, WinStar will again be at the top of their short list. But I can't imagine that BT will be content to stop with the AT&T alliance. Could get interesting, as I'm sure Sprint now understands WinStar's strategic value and WinStar could be a very vital part of their plans. But then, of course, could AT&T afford to let either BT or Sprint get WinStar? It would be interesting to see ahead a couple years to see how all this is going to shake out.
